Red Mosquito raceway in Batavia/Cincinnati, OH 2012/13
 

I am happy to announce that carpet racing is going to return to the Cincinnati area once again. Red Mosquito raceway (RMR) "The track with bite" will be located at 299 Haskell lane in Batavia,OH. Batavia is located just out side the I-275 loop just off state hwy 32. The track will be next door to Go Fast raceway which is 15,000 sq ft first class off-road track. While there you will have no need to worry about dust and dirt as there will be a wall separating the two tracks. The combination of the two tracks will fill the need of any R/C racer new or old, basher or expert!

The 60000 sq ft track will hold pits, a small hobby shop (carpet racing related), and new 80x40 CRC carpet track. The building is equipped with heating, A/C and on site restrooms. I will have racing four days a week with practice days when we are not racing. RMR will also play host to the John's BSR BRL finals the weekend of March 22nd to 24th.

I will continue to post information and racing schedule as we get closer to being able to race. My goal is to be up and running by the first weekend in November!

If you have any questions or would like to help, donate time, supplies, or money you can send an email to [email protected]

I look forward to a great 2012/2013 season at RMR and I hope you can plan to attend one of our many races!

I am attaching some photos of the out side and inside. Not much to see but it will give you an idea of the space we will have to work with (about half). More news to follow!

Monti

What classes will you be running? Oval, TC, 12th?

All of the above and then some. I hope to have a 1/18 scale/mini revo off road night too.

I never understood the three racers makes a class deal. If you want to pay an entry and run against the clock buy your self than so be it.

That is great to know! I just was told about it by Gleason. Do you have a dated for your first race day yet? From what I was told you are going to run on Sundays and I am guessing it will be rubber tire blinky for 17.5 touring. Is that correct?

Thanks

Brian

I plan to ready to start racing on the 11th for on road if it turns out sooner ill post on here. You can find us on Facebook at Red Mosquito raceway too.
I would assume that will be what the tc class will end up running. I am game to run what everyone wants.

Monti

That sounds good Monti,

Thanks for the fast update. I will get my cars ready to run and keep looking for updates.

Looking forward to running on some carpet with you guys!! :nod:

Awesome, thats what I like to hear!

Monti

Monti,
Have you got any new updated pictures posted on FB or hobbyT?
I will not be able to make the Nov. 11 race but I know you will have a few guys from Lexington will up to race. I will be up the week after for sure.

There is a face book page search red mosquito raceway. Look forward to seeing you soon!

Monti

The plan is to open by 10am race at 1pm.



The issue I have right now is that I had to reschedule my carpet guy to Saturday and my track barriers have not arrived yet. I still have a shot at opening on Sunday for racing but I am not sure if it will happen.



I only have one shot at a first impression and I want to make it a good one. I will announce tomorrow if we are a go or not. If it does not seem we can get it done I will try for a week day opening or next Sunday for sure. I appoligize, it some times is not as simple as it can be.



Stay tuned Mr. Murphy has arrived!



Monti

There will be no racing on Sunday! :0(

I've tried my best to have everything ready but my barrier system will not arrive till Monday. I am very sorry to all those that planned to come out and support the track. This extra time will allow me some extra time to get more "i's" dotted and "t's" crossed. It was a very large challenge to build and open a track in thee weeks and I almost did it! Next week we will race for sure I look forward to seeing everyone then.

Please pass the word along to those that don't follow all the forms.

Thank you!

Monti

Any update?
