3 years ago today our final laps. What a ride, 5 years of great memories, family and friends. Still keeping our fingers crossed for any new location.

We’ve been asked many times what has happened out at our old Steel City Speedway location. Well here’s a view from this afternoon. If you look close on the left side there is a large roll off dumpster, that was the 180 corner going onto the back straight. You will see an orange cone towards the left side that was the concrete going onto the wheelchair ramp. The right side where the power pole is now was the very south east corner past start finish. Developer is now using it for job site trailer and parking. Sad to see knowing all the fun, friends and memories that were made there.

Just an update on what we’ve been doing most recently to find a new track location.
We are currently working with the Parks Department and are awaiting a request for proposal (RFP) on one specific property location that we have looked at. We will be working on our proposal and getting it to their office in July once the RFP is open to submit.
More recently we have had multiple phone calls from both the Director of Parks Department office and the Regional Supervisor office, both discussing our RFP and the possibility of other property locations to inspect with their office.
Still there is no 100% guarantee of anything yet, but we feel positive that they are still calling us, emailing us, and are asking questions in regards to what we need.
So everyone stay positive, say a few prayers, and keep your fingers crossed.

This day 7 years ago, a very proud day for our family, opening day 2018 of Steel City RC Speedway. I am glad we had the 5 years that we did at SCS, because of it we've all made new friends, welcomed new family members and even welcomed into this world another beautiful grand daughter because of SCS. Our family is not done trying to find a new location for another RC track. With the great help of a small group of SCS racers we are having meetings and emails with San Bernardino County Parks Department and are keeping our fingers crossed.

Here is a recent picture of Fontana Speedway. I will no longer refer to it Auto Club Speedway because they were only a corporate sponsor until their contract was up and they are not the bad guys, I will no longer refer to it as California Speedway, because that was when Roger Penske & Les Richter built and operated the facility. This is strictly a NASCAR mess now and future home of more concrete buildings, more traffic, more trucks, and yes of course more tax dollars. This picture has been borrowed from another persons post. Our little slice of enjoyment up in the far left corner still stands for now. I know NASCAR doesn't even care how many racers, little kids, and families they have absolutely let down by doing this, they should be ashamed. Every NASCAR team owner, every NASCAR board member should be ashamed as well allowing this to happen, but then again I am assuming when NASCAR profits so does every team owner and board member as well. Since we were closed down in December 2022 we have been trying to find a new home for SCS.
So. California Edison would like me to fill out pages of paperwork, spend thousands of dollars on a site plan, and site impact studies, before even entertaining the idea of allowing us to use any of their land under high tension lines, and from what I was told unless it's a soccer field or park, highly unlikely. I have tracked down property parcel numbers and gone to 2 different city halls to fill out paperwork to find out ownership. I have contacted multiple properties that are up for sale or lease and not one are within our budget or an RC tracks budget. I personally sat down with a very large aftermarket auto parts distribution company and they seemed very interested in allowing us to use a very large area of their unused property, until they brought in their landlord that can stick it where the sun doesn't shine. Seems like no one wants to put any effort out there to help. I even emailed a representative with a very large race fuel manufacturer asking about contacts in the racing industry that they may know that could help out, and got absolutely no response to my email. I've gotten emails not returned, phones calls not returned, and many of these are from entities that only exist because of our tax paying dollars. I have not given up yet we are still looking for 2 1/2 - 3 acres of land. Problem is 108,900 - 130,680 square feet of property is leasing for anywhere from $0.38 - $0.45 per square foot per month, or selling for anywhere from $1.8 - $2.5 million per acre in Southern California, seems like most to trucking companies looking for truck parking. So if you know of anyone with money to burn or property to help out with give them my contact information.

On this day in 2018 was opening day at SCS.
I had planned to have Kyle Goodwine turn the first laps at SCS, but Ruben Serrano was so amped up and excited to run his car he surprised us and beat everyone to it. In the long run our family couldn’t think of a nicer more dedicated RC racer to turn the first laps than Ruben.
So many smiles, so many new friends, and new family members were created at this little RC track known simply as SCS.

Ventured out this week to RCHQ / San Antonio, Texas for some 1:28 racing. This facility is within the Rolling Oaks Mall. Some of our local SCS racers and 1:28 Raceway are here representing. As of this morning 152 entries. This track layout is huge roughly 61’ x 33’.
Great group of guys here at RCHQ running this place.

To stop and think this was the beginning of a small simple dream to build an RC track. Yes 5 years ago today 1/23/2018 was the day we broke ground. So many memories, so many emotions, so many new family members.

If anyone is interested in VP 16R fuel we still have some available. $102 per case of 6 or $17 per gallon. Pickup at the track tomorrow only.

Very sad two Southern California racing locations to bring families, friends, competition, and smiles all together just destroyed over greed, yes I said greed.
One NASCAR employee once said to me “do you realized what an acre is worth ?”.
I sure do, but I also realize what someone’s passion, enjoyment, love of a hobby, fun in life might be worth as well. When that final checkered flag is waved for each and everyone of us, you can’t take it with you. Look at our little slice of red fun we got to enjoy.

It’s been a tough week, weekend, okay it’s been a roll a coaster of a month, but this helped a little bit today.
Thank you to all of our SCS family of racers that came out and supported our Toys for the Kids race this past weekend.
You guys and gals are all awesome. Beth and I delivered all of YOUR toys to the Chino Neighborhood House today and all of the volunteers were over joyed with what all of YOU did for a family and child less fortunate than yourself. Thank you from the bottom of our heart, the Goodwine family.
MERRY CHRISTMAS !
