Wiring just about completed and the restoration of the old red line King is looking awesome.

Bret has done a beautiful job with the wiring and chris the owner has not held back on expense in this department making sure the electrical work is perfect.

Track had its first run tonight on red lane. We powered it up give the track a bit of spray goo and it was all systems go.

I think the track is all but operational. It works fine and looks great. I was told they are just waiting on an update to the timing system to make it fully race ready but as it stands you can drive on it but you just don't know how fast your lap was. probably a good thing :lol: I am looking forward to driving on it. I have never been in awe of the king layout but maybe when i drive it i will think differently.

I am out there tomorrow night so i will try and post some pics.

From the photo's looks like an amazing fast track can't wait to race on it, so when is your first race?

T/Birds had an opening day Saturday.

Thanks to Ghris/ T Birds for the BBQ and free track time, also to Bill who painstakingly did almost all the restoration work.

The old reactions were a bit slow to start with.

Well attended, but not many old Redline Racers around yet. Hopefully word will now filter to them that the track is now up and running after such a long absence.

There is one pic posted by Cleveland on Auslot Forum so far.
