Race Em RC Club!! - 11-30-2007, 07:16 PM

Hello!!

How are you? We would like a few minutes of your time.

We have a few questions to ask about an adventure we would like to create for you, your child/ren, and the community!!

We are in the process of opening a Off-Road R/C facility for Racing and Recreational use! This particular adventure would involve R/C (radio controlled) sport racing. The following is a small list of what we are developing:

- A track in the Boone/Winnebago County area
- Low Club Membership Fee
- Parent participation
- Both Boys and Girls of all ages
- Available R/C vehicles (near future)
- Special event days
- Birthday Parties
- Point Racing Series

The above is just a fraction of what we hope to accomplish.

This is where you come in, if this sounds like something you and/ or your child/ren would be interested in, please respond via e-mail to the address below. It is important that we receive your show of interest in this facility.

Thank you in advance for all your help!!!!
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Justin at 815-509-8391 or
RaceEmRC@Hotmail.com

It will handle nitro and electric. 10th scale for sure, but possibly 8th scale. We are working on purchasing some land right after the new year. That is why we are trying to get the response from the public so we can get all the lisences that go with this hobby. Please e-mail me at my e-mail address so I can print them out when we take it to the state of Illinois!

Thanks for the continued Intrest!!

Justin

HEy everyone!! THe Parade went GREAT!!! We had 250 flyers printed with the e-mail address on it. I ended up jumping over 3 people with my revo, and at the end of the parade I jumped my cadillac with it. It was a very good time!! The crowd loved it!! I am asking everyone for some help here! We did not get the response we wanted as far as e-mails go. We have to have More e-mails to be able to get the legal process completed!! All I am asking for is anyone who is interested is to just write to the e-mail address stating that they would be interested in a local track! Thats all! If we get this done, there will be alot for everyone to do! There will be a very big track!!! A very nice club to be a part of and tons more!! Please, e-mail us at this email RaceEmRC@charter.net if you are interested!! Thanks guys for the continued support!!

Justin...why do you need to receive emails from total strangers? And why would you need email to go any further with your new endeavor as you suggest above?

I was going to ask this on the rctech forum but I thought that rctech is too public and didn't want to stir the pot.......

Oops. I asked on RcTech before checking here.

Assuming the emails are needed, could we have a little idea of the status by knowing how many more emails are needed. Or how many do we have and how many is the goal?

Really, if I want to open a club someday, I did not know some of the details of the politics, so I am just curious how it all goes. Plus I want RaceEm to work out.

Well, its a very long legal process. Its not that we HAVE to have the e-mail. It just gives us that extra push that we will need when we go for the Club name, and to get the zoning done. So that we can say that we have for example, 150 e-mails stating that there is a big intrest in this sport, and this track will be worth it! There are alot of other things that I would love to tell you guys. But according to the Attorney that we have doing this for us, I am not allowed to state much more untill the name becomes legal. I have around 10 emails. Our goal was around 100. Yeah, a long way from our goal, but thats fine if we dont get it. We need all the pro's and con's for the track. We have to state some negatives about the proposed track too. Bobwoodhouse, I really love the support you have shown all this way, you have been there since I started posting! That is what is going to make a club succeed, becuase of people like you!! There is alot of legal stuff to finish before we can even think of track design, or location. Another note to the e-mails, They are not so we can get Rockford to give us land to build a track. This will all be bought and paid for by the Club! We will be traveling alot this winter looking at other tracks! We already have some money invested in this, so trust me, It will be there by next spring!! Just hang in there and tell everyone you guys/gals Know!! Thanks again, and any other questions please feel free to ask here or give me a call after 6pm. 815-509-8391

Where in the world do you see him ever say that? He stated that he would be traveling to tracks to get layout ideas. Reading does wonders.

He is speaking about the negatives of putting a track at his location of choice. Anytime you do a business plan you should weigh the pro's and cons of the venture to see if it is worthwhile. Business 101.

Hang on buddy!!! I am not stating negatives about other tracks!!! Just like slaytanic said. That is what you have to do for business plans!! You have to state the negatives about building a business. One of the negatives is Noise from the nitro’s!! Not saying that the other tracks are bad and all that!! We are trying to be friends with other tracks to put organized races together with other tracks!! Its going to be a club!!! Why don’t you do us all a favor and ask me some questions before you start making false accusations!
