Track Locator

[BrianG]

This topic would be a good candidate for a database-driven system; something with search capability and so on.

Anyway, the only track I've been to is:

Location: Hobby Haven LHS

Address: 86th street, Des Moines, IA

Contact: 515-276-8785

Description: Small outdoor track more suited for 10th scale IMO, but they do 8th scale too. Classes seem to be determined by if 3 or more of the same vehicle type show up. Race are for prizes (store credit I think). Race fees are something like $8 for one class, $12 for two. Practice up to about 15 minutes before race time just to allow a little track prep.

Wednesday nights are electric only. 7PM to finish. Typical classes are stock/mod truck/buggy (2wd 10th scale).

Saturday afternoons are electric and nitro mixed, but seem to be mostly nitro. 12 noon to 4-5ish IIRC. 8th scale buggies/truggies common. Too smelly and noisy for me most of the time.
