I know of at least 4-5 nitro sedan guys that would be game, and probably 4-5 1/8 scales too. Hope this helps.

The other consideration is to the drivers stand. That is an overlooked area as far as visibility is concerned.

His location is fantastic. There’s a hotel across the street, close to the airport, food, clubs, TV stations, The Mayors Office and one of the largest populations of “potential new RC blood” around.

Ronnie’s place & staff will do well with the right amount of “push”

Just do it!

Ronnie, Make it like a Baby Kissimmee or Cincinnati track design, with painted infield areas so “the general public” will want to get into RC racing and your track photographs well. Pipes & boards are ugly.

Let me know when you want to start, I'm with ya!

Default 1/8 On-Road in Tampa

Ronnie,

Here are some pictures of some beautiful tracks I’ve found from all over the world. Some of them are very large but they all share a common feel and look that can be recreated at your new facility.

Your location in the heart of the City of Tampa can attract more than all of us racers, it can attract the general public.

With the expenditure of time and financial investment you’ll be putting into this much needed track project, design a race facility that the general public will view as pleasing to the eyes and make them want to get started in R/C racing.

Yes we sometimes have to turn right to avoid the backmarkers as we pass them on the outside on the big oval
