Track work is under way. New pipes, new layout, new traction compound, painted infields. This track is going to look awesome once we finish. We should be done by the end of the week and be running on Saturday. We'll have pics posted.

We're running on the 10th as well. We've got guys coming out almost everyday this week to finish the track, so we should have everything painted by Saturday, but if not, then we'll still have the new layout down.

Default T/C Track

Ok Guys the NEW T/C track layout is DOWN! We will be doing the painting this week weather permitting, but the track is raceable for next saturday if push comes to shove.

Also...Thanks to all who came and helped out with the T/C track it was very much appreciated.

The paint looks nice, just remeber that you will have to keep the layout permanently after painting. So far it looks awesome.

The plan is to seal once we get above 55*. Then we we have to change the layout again, we can reseal and the painted parts will be covered.
