Hi everyone I am building and indoor carpet offroad track. I am doing it just for fun and to see who all wants to come race with myself and a few friends of mine. We all have the traxxas slash but once the track is done I would love to see all types of classes race. Track will be located in Northeast Pennsylvania.

As I get closer to finishing my track I will back with updates. If anyone is interested in racing at Dunn Speedway then let me know! Here are a few pics of how I am coming along with the progress.

Thanks!

Billy

Yes I am putting down carpet but it wont be full carpet just yet. gonna have some loose spots lol. but so far there seems to be a nice flow and some passing room.
