Track owner Guy Griffin: "Our track itself is 8' x 16' in length and was built by Tim Hottle of Outback Motor Speedway."

We base our track strictly on dirt divisions. We race Big Block Dirt Modifieds, Crate Late Models for ages 12-17, Super Late Models and Sprint cars. All are 1/24 scale and we use the Parma 501 Deathstar motor in all classes.

We race every Saturday starting October 17, and race through March. We are only in our third year and are wading through the changes that need made as time goes on. We have had nothing but positive great fun, and hope it continues this way as we have a great group of racers. The track itself is a tough tough slightly banked track that is all about handling and not so much horsepower!!"

How do they keep a supply of motors, I thought these were hard to come by?

New Deathstars are difficult to buy. Maybe they're rebuilding old motors for reuse? Or maybe they're using the Pro Slot SpeedFX. A PM or email to them should let you know.
