However our previous indoor track may work for you, it would have for us had someone not messed it up. We used a warehouse on a military base. There was a shop running it and the base charged them rent but it was highly discounted because having a track available for military members to race at was good entertainment for the troops and covered under the Navy MWR (Moral, welfare, and recreation). You may be able to swing something under MWR for free if you don't have a shop and/or run it as non-profit if you have a base close enough.
Thanks for the sugestion. Someone also has a track set up at a VFW hall, and they run one or two races and donate the funds to them! Both good ideas! Thanks!
