[QUOTE=RCBLUE;6532411]The address is 11779 SE Hwy 212 Suite 200, Clackamas OR. It is the first driveway on the left off of Hwy 212 after the Fred Meyer distribution center (which is a stop light) if your driving east bound. It is the same entrance as the Grainger wharehouse. The name will be on the front door in the next day or two.QUOTE]

This is the real address and directions.

Thanks for confirming the address and directions.

I'm a new face to the RC community as I just started racing SCT this past summer. Couldn't drop by to help this past weekend with the dirt move as my honey-o had plans all weekend long.

Hope I can make it on opening day, but might be out of town.

Thanks Dunlaps for bringing indoor track back to Portland.

Most of the carpet was pretty hammered. It didn't pull up easy without tearing either.

They did put in some real nice dirt in its place if that makes you feel any better.

If they had post it in Craigslist free to go section, someone would have snapped it up damaged or not.

I just recently post my photocopier on CL which required a $100+ part to make it fully function (which cost more than it's worth) and a person picked it up knowing it was not working.

Also, if PRCR ever need dirt for track maintenance, check CL free section there are many posting for free dirt.

Hiya everyone! Sounds like things are coming along great! I'm so happy to have an indoor offroad track available! Sorry I have been MIA but I have a new job that's keeping me pretty busy. I've been forced to race onroad on Tuesday nights. Anyway I read through most of the posts and can't figure out if there is a race on the first or not. Also did you guys decide on what days you'll be racing? Hopefully Sundays or Mondays because that's all I can get free. Anyway, I miss seeing all you guys every weekend and really look forward to burning up that old Amain dirt again.

Hoping for a race on Sunday....

PS. If any of you Kyosho converts have any B4 parts laying around and don't have anything better to do with them I'll be glad to take them off your hands.

It took an 8000lbs hydraulic winch to pull it up. It stretched and tore. We tried as hard as we could to save it just to try to get some $$ out of it, but is was glued waaayyyy too well.

My dad used to be a flooring installer and I did several glue down jobs with him. With the amount of glue that was used even soaking it in water would not have helped much. There were a few spots that looked like they left globs of glue and didn't spread it around evenly.
