No nitro racing yet, but an outdoor dirt track and an outdoor paved track are in the plans. Hopefully they will be ready for next summer.

ITs a church basement. We are trying to set the place up for 2morrow but have run into some delays. This Tuesday may be a wash. We are trying to keep things friendly and fun. Where do you live. If your close to FMP you should come by and introduce yourself this weekend.

Im in Suffolk county as are most of the others I race with but I think ur only about 30-45 minutes away thats why I asked where u were planning on doing the indoor races. We race on carpet on Friday nights but Im sure I can convince some guys to come out on tuesday nights. What type of surface r u planning on racing on?
