How long does
it take to set up the track?
Micro Reality
Track: Complete set-up of the track
usually takes two hours to complete, so please plan to
have us arrive three hours prior to the beginning of the
event. Track tear-down can usually be accomplished
in one hour. Mini/Trade Show Track: Complete set-up of the track
usually takes one hour to complete, so please plan to
have us arrive two hours prior to the beginning of the
event. Track tear-down can usually be accomplished
in a half hour.
What kind of turnover
can be expected? Micro Reality
Track: Approximately 120 -150 racers per hour. Mini/Trade Show Track: Approximately 80-100 racers per hour.
These numbers are
based on 2 minute races, which we have found to be the optimal race
length. However, we can shorten that time if it's necessary to get more
people through.
Do we need to
help you setup the track or run the races?
No. P&G Speedway handles
all aspects of setting up the track, running the races, and tearing down the
track after the event. However, if a tournament is being conducted, it is
sometimes easier for the client to have one of their own people keeping track of
the racers so that the pit crew can focus on running the races and keeping up
with car maintenance.
What are the space requirements? Micro Reality
Track: It depends on the track layout that
you prefer, however 20' x
30' is the required space for our standard track. Click
here to visit our track layout page. The track can be easily
carted into most any facility. If it is an outdoor event and we are to provide our inflatable
Race Dome, a 38' x 38' space with 18' of height clearance would be required. Mini/Trade Show Track: A 15' x 20' space is preferred,
however if your available space doesn't quite match that, call us with the exact
space to see if it will work. Click

Is a tent required? If we are not contracted to
provide our inflatable Race Dome, the client is responsible to provide covered operating
space. Micro Reality
Track: The minimum size tent for wet weather operation is 30' x 30'.
During dry weather, if the temperature is above 80 degrees, a 20' x 30' tent is
required due to the heat of the track and it's effect on the cars. Mini/Trade Show Track: The minimum size tent for wet weather operation is 20' x 20'.
During dry weather, if the temperature is above 80 degrees, a 10' x 20' tent is
required due to the heat of the track and it's effect on the cars. What are the electrical requirements? Inside or
outside, one standard 110 volt 15 amp wall plug is all
that is needed. With
notice, and understanding the noise a generator makes, we
can supply a generator for an additional fee. If we are to provide our inflatable
tent, an additional 15 amp circuit would be required. Are there discounts available? Yes. There is
special pricing available when contracting us for
multiple dates. We also offer discounted rates to
charitable organizations. Please contact us for more
details. What are the payment terms? A non-refundable deposit of
$300 for each day of performance and 50% of any applicable travel fees is required
to secure your date,
with the balance due on the day of the event. We also require a
100% payment on all customization options (car bodies, signs, etc.) What if I need to reschedule? If the event needs to be
rescheduled, a $200 rescheduling fee may be applied to the balance due. If
the event is rescheduled after P&G Speedway arrives at the location of the
event, a mileage fee will be applied to the balance due of $1.50 per mile
roundtrip, along with the $200 rescheduling fee.P&G Speedway cannot be held responsible if they are
not available on the requested rescheduled date. In this instance, the
deposit will be applied as a credit toward a future event, minus the $200
rescheduling fee and any applicable mileage fees. Can we customize the track? Absolutely.
Our goal is to be your speedway. We encourage our
clients to work with us on decorating the track if
advertising/brand awareness is important. Custom
car bodies can also be designed to give you further
exposure on the track. After the event, the car
body is yours to keep. Many clients are thrilled to
see a car with their logo and colors out on the racetrack. Please contact us for
pricing information. We wear race themed shirts and black pants at the shows, but are happy to dress in client
provided shirts if so desired.
How far in advance do I have to schedule you? There is no specific amount of time
that we need, we've been contracted as long as 9 months in advance and as short
as 3 days in advance. However the sooner you commit, the less likely it is
that we will be hired by another client. If you are interested in
having custom car bodies designed for your event, we typically will need
anywhere from 2-4 weeks to have them made up, depending on quantity and
complexity. How far do you travel? As the slogan
says..."You name the place, we'll bring the
race!" We will operate anywhere in the country.
