Awesome!

Lots of options, this is good
Agreed, lots of 12th scale ! Would love to see a ton of F-1 ( even though I am a fan of F-1 back in the day with foam tires )

These USGT guys are having a ton of fun , and will continue that indoors.. they got me thinking about which body set to get

Some of you may remember me from the old place. This is Mike that worked there for a good while. Robbie and a few others will remember. I would just like to say congrats on the NEW track. Wish you guys all the best and hope that this will lead to an off road program at the track on the other side at a later date.

We have a lot to clean up, and will also need some supplies, here is a list in case you all have some of these items

Trash Cans
Trash Bags
Bathroom Cleaning supplies
Bathroom Towels
TP
Push Broom or 2
dust pan
Shop Vac or Vacuum
Floor Buffer ( would be nice in the future too )
Power strips ( we have to use these out of wall outlets )
Fire extinguishers x 3
4 - 5 gallon buckets
10 pounds of sand ( for Lipos in case of fire )
The landlord did reserve the right and plans to spot check us for fire prevention methods.

Stay tuned for Membership info and perks
Stay tuned for the " traveler rewards program " for long haul racers
I can bring some sand if need be but I wont get off work till 2pm Saturday

Got to stop in for a few hours to clean up some tonight. Still plenty of work left. Thinking 10-4 tomorrow with some extra help should just about do it. The place still does exactly what I remember, makes time slip by rapidly.

we are pretty much finished, minus a few small items
I was able to get one of the buffers working, and cleaned the floor that used to be behind the counter area ( we re arranged ), Last year where the small fire occurred, I was able to get that area cleaned up , and we set up the bleacher stands on that side..
We got the entire center section cleared out ( where the store used to be ) and that is now pit area...
Track is ready..
timing scoring ready,
We are race ready..

Jason and I got more laps today....and my 5 year old Tekin blew up...

Thanks to Jason as well for earning the First Paid Season Pass Membership ..
And he has chosen pit space # 33 -

Jason was also able to set up the right side wall, and get the shelves arranged to free up the floor space...
