Thanks for ur info it helps alot. If any 1 knows how wide of lanes would be ideal for 1/5 Baja track let me know I was thinking 7 to 8 foot wide lane lots of room for passing & crashing lol. Any info would help thanks.

How far are you from Toronto? The Barnyard in Stratford, Ontario is a size.

May build track near Trenton Ontario wife & I are selling our house have couple properties in mind. As soon as it sells I will have more info. Should b sold soon. Track will have lots of humps,bumps & big jumps with long straight away for start/finish line to gain lots of speed. No oval track to boring. Its BN a big dream of mine but time to make reality.

Regulation is 4 meters wide. You could have a look at the ROAR website for more info

or the IFMAR website

It may benefit you and your club to be part of the organisation as they could offer all sorts of help.

Does anybody have a gd idea on how many acres would b enough to build the ultimate short course track including enough room for camping area. Would 4 acres be enough?

Tall pines 1/5 fast track

Come on out & get your race on eh. I have a robotnic lap counter installed.

Track is about 120' feet long with around 15' foot wide lanes lots of room for passing. The track is in shape of a V & wraps around 4 trees so watch out for that tree eh lol. I run mostly my 1/5 king motor Baja but will also run 1/8 & 1/10 if u have one. I race on weekends sat/sun 8am to 9pm. There is parking & lots of space for your pit table limited hydro for charging your battery's available for 5 bucks a day. I live 15km out side Belleville Ontario on Hwy 62 if your interested in racing call or txt 613 885 6185 my name is Ted. I'm always up to a race so give me a call & will set something up for a weekend. All 1/5 Baja racers welcome so come get your race on eh. Robitronic lap counter installed. I only have 3 transponders at the moment so if you have a Robitronic Transponder bring with u.

How far from Montreal?

Send any info my way.

I have not chosen between Baja or 5T (very frustrating problem), I feel like I am stuck.

I live in stirling on canada over 2 hr drive away from u bud ur way closer to Rcacres in Hamilton but if ur ever around this way pop on in. don't get to fustrated bud as they are both nice machines. I own the kingmotor baja 5t clone. Awesome baja for the price plus they seem to be getting better & better.

I'm in Belleville and own a dbxl. When is your track open?

 

[5T-4U2NV]

Kinger, are you registered to race at RC Acres this year too? There is about 5 guys from the Belleville area coming.

 

[Evangelos]

When the snow melts . I think there is an open house meaning to don't pay to run that day.

 

[rcorrell]

More likely next week soon as snow melts of the track. Im one of the Belleville guys going to RcAcres.

 

[Kinger]

That's cool. Naw I'm not registered for rc acres this year. Haven't even got the dbxl broken in yet lol. Not quite ready
