Default Platinum Hobbies & Raceway to open in Columbus Ohio

For quite a few years, Columbus Ohio has not had indoor carpet racing. This will soon change. Platinum Hobbies & Raceway will open tentatively in mid-November. The store and Raceway will be located in the Brice Outlet Mall on the east side of Columbus. We started working on the track this week. Here is a link to some pictures of what we are working on.

I hear that on the home track. I'm sick of driving 2 hours to Cleveland or Cinci to race!

Yeah-before we got the gate-we were driving to Toledo every weekend and sometimes on Sat and back on Sunday-toll roads, icy freeway, up early and home late. Yuck!! Some of the better funded friends of mine wwould stay at a hotel, but I didnt have the budget to do that to practice.

Works for me...I'd like nothing better than to finish racing and have a beer in my hand shortly thereafter.

Shame this nice facility wasn't around when I left the hobby. Still miss doing a little racing now and then. Maybe I'll get the chance to see many of you again when the racing starts.

Sent you a PM Mr. Huang

For anyone who remembers me and might be wondering what I'm up to now that I'm out of racing, you can go here.

Hope to see many of you at the new track one of these days.

Mike
