Unfortunately, the only track I know of near me is at the LHS and it is small for 1/10 scale generally even though they run 1/8 scale on it. I know there are more tracks in other cities is IA, just don't know where or how big.

Ideally, someone should have a nice big backyard capable of housing a track. And then a picknick table and some beers to round out the day. I tend to like the more informal "jsut playing around" type of racing.

And no, I'm not volunteering my yard as it is about as big as the bed of a pickup!

Maybe those east-coasters can have their bash and we midwesterners can have ours. We've got quite a few members in this general region, all we need is a date and a location.

You guys might as well. IDK just how much of an official bash we can get as the Barn's sched is usually pretty booked, esp in the spring as everybody is excited to get back to racing. What we can do is just pick a date where there isn't a huge special event and all just come and have our own class. Really depends on how many can come.

beer def needs to be involved somewhere..

Anyone have any idea what is going on at the Barn? They have a new (and less detailed) website up, but nothing on the sched. They do say they've expanded the track again tho.

I'm going to be in town visiting family nearly every wkend for the next mo or so, and I'd like to get over there hopefully once at least. We are visiting people coming in from out of town, so I can't spend all my time up there, but hopefully one of those sundays I can go out messing.

Expanded track at the Barn - 05.10.2009, 11:38 PM

Was up visiting family for mothers day and stopped by to check out the track. No racing on Sun, but the new track is even bigger and more awesome. Looks like a kickass track to run on. I'm dying to take a run on it.



Be sure to zoom in to 100% to see all the details.

Thats a crazy long straight on the front. Looks like a fun layout and the track is quite a bit bigger from what I remember from 2 years ago.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...
