I wish Tex and the crew of Indy the very best of luck with the sale, however it may pan out. I will make it a point to get as much track time in as possible.

Traxxas is actually now located in McKinney. I haven't heard anything about them building a track.

This was a rumor that was put out a couple of years back when the talk was of them moving to McKinney from Plano. Operating a track is something I don't think was in their plans.

Man, I'm sorry to hear. Hopefully the new owners can keep things going. I hope to make it back up there again to race. Good times with the DFW crew.

Just moved to Garland, me and my daughter found this track and are looking forward to getting back into the hobby and racing. We stopped in yesterday to check it out. Looks awesome...have to say though we saw the for sale sign pulling in also. (hope that it stays open)
Well I hope to be on the track next week putting in some laps and hope to meet some new peeps.

Will it be large enough to accommodate 1/5th scales?

Nice! Post some photos of progress and I'm sure you will get some suggestions! Where are you planning on building?

At the minute-"Build it and they will come". At the minute, i'll race anywhere if it looks like dirt/clay/carpet/astro.

I am sure there are plenty of us that would be willing to help out with the build as well. I know i would put in some hours to have a place to race.
