We worked on the track today again and prepped it for tomorrow. The surface is dialed. Tomorrow will be a good day. And it's free!

Default TRACK INFO

Address: 1687 Stoystown Road Friedens, PA 15501

We will be starting tomorrow at around 10:00AM and will go till dark or no one is running. Admission is free. No cost at all. Only thing Shawn asks for is donations that will be put directly towards the track. A nitro pit lane specifically. So come on out and check it out. This will help make the facility better in any way and we appreciate your suggestions. It should be in great condition for tomorrow.

We will also be having a cookout with free food. No cost to you. I am not 100% sure on this, but he has rental Traxxas Slashes for use for new users who may want to try it out as well.

I will be on the forum throughout the evening and night so feel free to post any questions and I will try to answer or contact Shawn about the issue.

Thanks Tyler. all is correct.

the track and food is free we only ask that instead of paying for an entry fee or a price for the burgers and dogs that you give us a donation.

Had a great time out at the track today, the layout is tricky but once you get used to it its pretty easy, the track looked great by the way and it could use some stuff fixed but yet again it was the first time on the track and i guess you gotta start somewhere.

I will try to be out and help you guess with the track just let me know when you will be out there working on it and i will see if i can make it.

The boy and I had a great time today! Thanks to Shawn and Tyler and anyone else who has worked on the track it was alot of fun, technical in the infield and wide open on the sweeper and front strait.

Also Shawn it was a blast racing you with the slash as well pretty hard to beat the smiles on both our faces on the stand!!

With a little more time and some of the stuff you were talking about doing the track will be even better.


Thanks Again
Jeff and Aiden
