it's too bad I'm on the opposite end of Ohio!! I think it's awesome what you do and despite some bad driving it looks like they are having a good time!!

If I ever end up in Cinci I'll have to make sure I let you know.

yes too bad man im looking for crew bad almost to the point of paying people to run my cars

No I will keep banging away till I get some drivers and hopefully find a home for the track before the weather gets cold

I really want mini-micro racing to take off here in Cincinnati I plan on checking out setting up at the flea market soon to get some exposure

Also trying to come with a logo for the Cincy Mini Speedway have ideas but no talent or a lot of time I wish I would win the lotto I would set up some where and have a blast night and day

That's a really nice setup. I can't believe you have both full-size and mini-96 tracks going. 3 wide-Ls? I wish it was easier and cheaper to travel.

Give me 40 hours a week and I'll do it for minimum wage.

Damn nice track. I would happily drop by to race on it, but you're way over there.

here is some more of the largest track i have made it uses most of all the wide L track that I currently have thinking about getting another wide L set just to open more possibilities I need more turns and heck I can make even longer straits

another shot from the side

I keep posting this so the lurkers might see it and drop by I really need some Racers

It’s a shame to have this and no one to share it with

Yeah, I mention Mini-Z, and they're like, "No one plays with those anymore." I told him there's actually a strong following on the internet.

Maybe if you took in pictures of your collection, and point out on the money they lost by not making these available to you, they might see the light.

At any rate, even if they don't support smaller scale, they should at least support the RC community, and realize by you dropping flyers there, it could only result in more customers for them in the long run.

I hope this isn't a stupid question, but have you asked over at minizracer.com? There's a section in that forum for making local get-togethers. Hue35 and I hooked up with Dogbreath over there and have had some really great racing with his crew.

I hate to see that incredible track being underused. I can't wait until Star Trek transporters are for real!

BTW, what kind of lap timing system are you using?

crazydave: yes im planning on doing this very soon you know how bad I have it im looking into buying a used mini van just to haul the track I would love to partner up with a shop just to have a place to run the z's where i have a/c and heat

SuperFly: mini-zracer is one of my haunts always on the look out for more r/c sites to post the pics on and get the word out tommorrow I am going to start working on my own site for these bad boy's

Im using the core timing system and have lots of extra tansponders for now its a very nice system no wires and mess
