Default Independent R/C Indoor Raceway, Spokane WA.

I am super stoked to announce that Independent R/C will be moving into a new building that will house both the hobby shop and an indoor offroad track. Wahoo!

The building is located just inside the Industrial Park about a minute from our current location. I will post an address and a map soon!

The space is being renovated as we speak. They are painting, building a bathroom, etc... We will be building the track and getting everything ready for racing in January!

I am very excited to have a place to race and most importantly......

have a great time!

More details to follow................

Stav........oh man......I wish the track was going to be that big. That would be awesome.

The track will be Electric only.

The track size should be around 36' x 70'.

That will give us 4 lanes deep at around 8-1/2' lanes.

70' should be enough long enough to get us in trouble.....

The most important part is we will continue the momentum from an awesome club race year and grow this thing!!!!

It should be a blast.........Racing is FUN!

SWEET!!!!!

Seeing how I got a free place to stay in Spokompton, I'll have to come up and do some pre '08 NCT season testing

Yo, DP, wanna go to the winter rage, and win a X-6 in the raffle, lol. Shane and I are thinking about it, we could split a room 3 ways.

Jay, 36 X 70 will be big enough. We just did a 40 X 80 track at a guys house and it's plenty big for 1/10 electric.

Eric.......can't wait to see what you have up your sleeve for next year!

Joe.......There is a big gas heater in the building. We will try and keep it comfortable without breaking the bank.

We have been scouting out dirt and we have a few options we are looking at. A good, clean dirt that will pack and not blow out too bad is what I would like to have.
