Racing in Carol Stream -
04-06-2008, 08:45 PM
Was looking around on another board and found this..... R/C Raceland I dont see that anyone else posted it although there are some members from this board who posted on this topic. I hope that it comes out to be something good. I have nothing that is any closer than 70 minutes from me. Heres the post... R/C Raceland (new track in Carol Stream) - R/C Tech Forums

I've been wanting to go over, but just haven't had the time.
so you can see someone else getting screwed at the same time I went into the gas station today and asked for five dollars worth of gas......The clerk farted and gave me a receipt.

It is actually my buddy doing that, should be interesting. If things go well they'll expand to do offroad outdoor and have an area setup for elec. helis inside (not that it is insanely relevant to the folks here).

With electric making a resurgence I see that european style indoor offroad track being VERY successful. I do think it is the wrong time of year to be starting an indoor track since people are actually getting antsy to run outside, but it should be a blast regardless.

Hey at least they are trying it. To me there is not much that is close to me to run at. With gas getting so expensive the closer you go the better. No you have to look at it like this....if all goes well now and there is interest....then come winter something has allready been established. Back in the day there were plenty of tracks in the area of Mchenry county where I am but now there really is nothing indoors. I have to hand it to these guys for taking this task on and trying it out.

Yes, I think Coop, Kole and myself will check it out with our Trans Am cars and a T-4, next Saturday. It will be interesting to see what kind of traction the place has. I'll take various different tires for the truck just in case.

Well like all the other places that keep saying they are opening a track on the forums, it just does not seem to happen. I know that this track had a race day but never heard anything ever again. It seem like all these tracks are gearing up for the begginers and the kids, WHICH IS GREAT!!! but that will not pay the bills and keep the doors open. I wish they would research more and realize its the hardcore racers that will keep coming and spend the money every week!

A friend of mine went over there to see how it was. He said he would never go back. Aparently he was watching the electrics and they told him to pay to watch. Eather give em $10 bucks or get out.
