So IRP is only indoor electric on carpet for the winter.
I look forward to indoor nitro trucking at LH's when it's ready!

Yes LH gets pretty busy especially on the weekends. It used to be Saturday open til 4 or so then MT racing and Sunday was for 1/8th scale. Not sure how the new format will be but I think it will remain close to last years. Plus you have to add that people will be excited about the grand opening so you will have more in the very begining.
A friend will help you move, but a REAL friend will help you move a body.

I don't know what the size of the new facility will be or what type of ventilation but the old one, although ventilated, would be pretty thick with nitro fumes and the noise level with a few big blocks running was tremendous.

It's a nice little place. Their outdoor nitro offroad track is ok, but considering the drive for me I will be switching to Leisure Hours once they are open.

Yep, looks like after Tinley closes shop for the winter I'll have to wait for Joliet to open.
