JERRY2KONE · **The nature of r/c -** 06.15.2011, 05:04 AM

THE NATURE OF R/C would lead one to believe that once you invite a few friends and acquaintences over to play about on your new track that it would quickly become a great hangout for people of our hobby to come on over and do a little R/C mixing. So thinking that this track would only be running a few vehicles will more than likely not sit for too long. Mike its good to see you engaging in such an investment after being in the shop for so long producing all of the great R/C products that your store has to offer. I myself spend most of our time working and living overseas, so the chances that I would be able to visit is pretty scaress. Still if the opportunity came about I would jump on it and enjoy spending a little time racing on your track. I have seen a few tracks traveling about the globe and many of them are built in such a hurry that faults are inevitable. Still for the most part no matter what or how you build it things will work out. The thing that has made some tracks stand out from others as being better besides the track layout are more so the drivers stand setup and location, pit road, and a garage area for people to work on their toys with electircal outlets, and maybe even a low PSI air bank for cleaning assistance. Even having a small seating area for spectators to watch and learn about just what it is that we do in this hobby. I have seen more people get involved just because of the experience they had watching a race. Some of the best features I have seen are track guide systems that keep vehicles from spending too much time corssing over into other lanes, along with bridges, and at least one very high bank turn that quicly becomes a favorite of racers. I saw one that measured ten feet high on the back side and it was a blast to race on.

Actually I am kind of surprized that you had not come up with a track nearby your shop so visitors and customers would be able to stop in and test out new gear after making purchases from your shop. Some of the best R/C shops that I have had the pleasure of seeing have tracks out back or right next store. I have seen people purchase RTR's and race them right out of the box on the shop track. At any rate I am happy to see you embark on such an endevour, and hope you have some fun with it Mike. Good luck getting your setup just right. I look forward to seeing the finished product Sir, and maybe visiting some day.
