Here are some pic from Yesterdays race in Fergus Fall at the Red Horse Ranch!

This has got to be one of the best indoor facilities for RC in the nation! And I'm not exagerating.....

With it being -26 below zero out it was 50 above inside! And when they flipped the magic switch the smoke disappeared and clean out the nitro in about 2 minutes. Then they quickly turned off the switch so we all did freeze in 4 minutes!

But have a look at the pics for all of you that decided to stay at home in front of your warm fire place it was actually quit cozzy at the Ranch too.

As you can see from the size of the track this is bigger than just about all of our outdoor tracks we race on during the summer and it held up quite nicely too. Jon water the track twice all day and it didn't even need it.

We were able to drive in and drop off our stuff and using wheeled carts (they had about 30 of them) we were able to get in and out in minutes.

We had room for about 400 guys but only 50 showed up ;( but since this was the first weekend and no one really knew what the facility was like this was understood.

We now officially now have access to probably the biggest and nicest track any of us will ever get a chance to race at.

The next race is January 19th, Jon can answer the logistics on the race.

Great job to Jon on the layout and the running of the race, we got out of there at about 7pm.
