I tried the Center points I used at Trackside. They worked kinda ok. I also tried enduros, barcodes and snipers. But Adam had some gridirons and 3 Ds that hooked up best.

I talked to Ryan last week and his intentions are to start racing after new years day. He wants to get comfortable with the scoring system before he starts a race program. Thats not a bad idea. Its never good to be learning a system while racers want a fast, smooth running program. Chuck

Unfortunately, we won't be open New Year's Eve do to other commitments but it's a cool idea and we will definitely keep that in mind for future event.

First time here on Saturday nice track nice facilities but they are going to need more pit area when they start racing. Also wish they would have put the drivers stand on the left side as it is hard to judge the far turns at the other end of the track. It definetly takes some getting used too.

I too think the drivers stand would have been better placed on the long side of the track. It is OK the way it is but different track layouts and elevation changes could make seeing some areas difficult. With that said I was wondering if you have decided when to start racing and what classes will be run. Coming out to practice is fun but I would like some racing without having to worry about my 1/10th buggy getting crushed by a giant out of control Revo or something. If you would like some input or help with tech or rules let me know.
If you are going to continue a while with just practice may I suggest a more controled practice with only similar vehicles allowed on the track at a time? Just a thought but it works well on race days where I have been running.
Please dont take this post as a gripe or anything. Just trying to help your already nice facility become a little better for the racers you built it for.

According to the post on facebook, Ryan announced they will be racing this saturday. Hopefully he can comment further as to when the doors will open and what time racing starts.

Thanks for the feedback, we are always happy to hear comments and ideas. Sometime we can make changes and other times we might not be able to for different reasons but either way we are always open for feedback. Thanks again!

Thumbs up Racing this Saturday!

We will be doing our first Race this Sat! Doors open at noon, races will start around 3pm. We will try and hit all regular classes. If there isn't enough cars for a certain class we can group together. Classes/Rules can be found on our website at hobbiesatinnovative.com

We will also be open for practice on Friday 5-9 and Sunday 12-6.

Hope to make it out friday for some practice before RACING on saturday. Like I said if you need help with tech or if new racers need help figuring out what class they should be in or anything just ask. Hope to see a bunch of guys and girls come to race for the first show at Innovative. I will be running Stock SC and Stock Buggy if there is a class. See you all there.
