Check out the new Central Florida HO Racing Club on Yahoo Groups. Our goal is to meet or race once a month on tracks in Central Florida. The focus is on factory-based hard-body cars and some performance lexan classes. It will be an opportunity learn more from each other on car set up and maintenance. There are enough classes so you can "run what you brung" and not be over or under matched. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CFHOR/?prop=eupdate
NOTE: If you live in Central Florida and could host races but don't have a track, we could possibly come up with a 4x16 4-lane layout for your space. Contact us - Please!
