Portland R/C Raceway Version 2.0

Hi Everyone,

I have some exciting news regarding Portland R/C Raceway. This weekend we are going to remodel the facility that will allow us to have a bigger track. Right now the dimensions are 42 wide x 56 long. After we make the changes, our new track will be 32 wide x 90 long! It will be a little more narrow than our current track, but way longer! The hobby shop and pits will all be moved to accomodate the change.

PRCR will be closed this weekend (May 14th & 15th) and will re-open at 4pm on Tuesday May 17th to hold our first club race after all the changes have been made.

Thanks,
JP

gsrman4885 - Yes, that was one of the many reasons for making the track bigger.
