Stockton Carpet Lives...Again
Yes, we are racing on carpet at the Stockton Fairgrounds.
This is a temp carpet track with racing approximately every other weekend through the winter. The actual race schedule is dictated by when a suitable rental building at the fairgrounds is available. The race promoter, Aaron, apparently has a great relationship with the fairgrounds management.
After tomorrow's race (Saturday, February 7), the next race day is scheduled for Sunday, February 22. The March schedule is not available yet; but, should be shortly.
The location is San Joaquin Fairgrounds, 1658 S Airport Way, Building 1, Stockton, CA 95206. This facility is near Charter Way which is an exit from both main Highways 5 and 99 that go north-south through Stockton.
Track doors are to open at 8:00 AM on race days. Race fees are: $25 for first class; $15 for second class; and free for a third class.
Best place to see the track's future schedule will be on www.rcracing.com. This website usually shows all r/c car events in Northern California. Otherwise, a 209 Raceway website is in the making.
Hope this helps. We had a great time practicing today. And tomorrow...we race.

Anyone in Northern California, if you are not far from Stockton, you should come check this out. Even if the drive is an hour and a half one way, this is worth it.
Traction is good
Race Program is excellent
Plenty of practice time
Sportsmanship is great
