Based on the pictures, I think FastCats and HobbyPlex are the nicest places I've seen. I think someone in Washington has a building under construction that's going to be dedicated to a Euro-style carpet track. That should be interesting.
If I opened a track, I'd want it to look like FastCats.

Wow I think both examples HobbyPlex and Fast Cats are excellent. My question is why the needs for som any tracks in one location? I think having maybe 2 on and 2 Offroad tracks might be enough to keep everyone happy? It would be better to grow slow and steady then to be still born with asperations (sp?) set too high. I would even look seriously in to multi use tracks i.e. oval and road course in one etc.

I wish you the best of luck with your venture.
I will tell you that without a large following locally of R/C Racers that it will be very hard to attract R/C compaines to help pay for a building. Also it will surely take more of your own money to get it going than anyone else. Most of the best R/C facilities in the US were built by hobby shop/track owners/Clubs who used there own sweat and tears to build it. Not including digging into there own pockets for the finances.
Again, good luck with it.
