It's an old Butternut Bread factory.

Enough parking indoors for 100 full scale cars.

Me and the boys have been helping a friend at his hobbyshop to get a smaller scale racetrack up and running. It's less than 10 minutes from the house. Strictly RC.

We've been racing twice a week which is fun. And being that we're racing Xray M18's, Recoils and rc18's it makes it double the fun.
