Inland Empire HO Raceway

Inland Empire HO Raceway Inland Empire HO Raceway was established in the early 2000s while growing the Southern California HO racing group.

My first trip to the fray in Ferndale was 2003. I have fielded teams at the fray and now live in New Mexico. Inland Empire HO Raceway is an entity dedicated to racing HO scale Thunder Jet slot cars from the mid 60's to early 70's in fray style. The Fray in Ferndale, CA is the race which started fray style racing. It is known in other geographic regions (Kansas City, MO and the East Coast) as super

stock. Rick Phillis and Rick Machado were the founders of fray style slot car racing. The Fray in Ferndale is held annually in late February or early March. Inland Empire has fielded a team at the fray about 4 years since 2003. Mickey Hurtado is the founder of Inland Empire HO Raceway.

Back in black. I got this cluster shaft cut and the Wizzard 9 tooth mounted. I took about .003-004” of the collar from the bottom of the top plate to prevent this first gen top plate from pinching on the 9 tooth. I tightened the brass clamp to hold the top plate more securely.

Still working on body set up. Need a bit more work on the Ferrari 458. The Lamborghini Murcielago is about right and ready for body posts to be drilled.
