Thumbs up

Good flow usually comes from diagonal runs. Its hard at first to get away from the back and forth lanes. (because its simple) Cool obstacles like off camber turns are a good contrast to the "speedbumps" alot of tracks think you have to have every so often. What ever you decide to do. Dont become Marryed to it and be prepared to tweak and change it up at least twice a year. although, quarterly is probably better to keep the interest up. I know whatever you decide to do it will be "top notch" You have a great rep as a track owner and we will all support you.

The first layout there was definitely my favorite, it had all the elements for 10th and 8th scale, without a lot of compromise towards either scale.
Yes; the goal was exactly that, have elements for both scales without to much compromise for either.

Paul Thank you .. what was the size of that track
It was around 120' x 75'

Default Schedule

We would love to make the trip over sometime! From the few that I know of,I believe the Jconcepts summer tour is June 15, holeshot and newreds June 22 and spacecoast rc has two or three big races that month,including the chaos on the coast point seriesNot sure if all the dates are correct but if you look around in the Florida racing thread you should be able to come up with a date.I believe all but holeshot and newreds fall on Saturday's,them on Sunday.Hope this helps some do your research and you should be alright. It may even be a good idea to try and call all the tracks within two hours of you and introduce and make it known you want to work together not COMPETE.

Most (that I know of) tracks race 1st and 3rd weekends.

With Lake Park being down for a while, it would be great to have a track to race at on bnb's off weeks. They run the 1st & 3rd sat every month. Also, at least for the hot summer months it would be much cooler to run at night. Keep it 8th scale friendly as much as possible. Most of the racers around here either run 8th scale or short course so the bigger and faster the better. Looking forward to it and thank you for giving us another place to race
