Nice. That might be enough to make me give oval a try. Looks like fun.

racer, I am originally from Piqua. This track is on the far east side of Columbus so plan on an extra 20-30 minutes of drive time.

Should be well worth the drive if you like oval. Rodney didn't you drive a 1/12 scale lastyear(road course). I think I remember you.

As of last week the track was being re-done, there was alittle to much of a "DIP" in the tranisition part so the track skeleton is being redone to get the "DIP" out.. a little set back but will be alot smoother this way.

My brother lives up there and races at this joint from time to time. He said that the mall was kicking the hobby shop and raceway out due to "illegal" activities. Any truth to that??

Excellent place to race now. Former owners were a tad shady but Vince has done a great job cleaning the poo out.

I'm looking forward to racing road course there this fall/winter if not all spring and summer too!

So maybe in the past, that's great the new owner has cleaned the place up. I know I plan a trip there soon as this leg heals up. FYI, don't ever go hunting with an ex father in law during gun season!!! Very painful decision!


Peace.

Bio and Poop are gone! So is this Vince a nicer guy than Poop was? Poop dressed kinda strange and painted his nails black but was a nice guy. Poop helped me setup up my 12L3. If any of you see Poop give him a shout out from Rick! I'll have to cum race in the next few weeks. Did you find a announcer to replace Poop?
