thanks daz for the support i understand where the others are coming from but as you say if so many are closing i think it should be time to start changing that or yes you will get stung with income tax which is what we dont want ok so im no expert on the racing side of it but the track itself is just the sideline part of it as a extra the shop is the main buisness and like i said before you either have to travel about 20 mile away to get the bits your after (if they stock them) or order online and wait x amount of time for them to arrive. at least if theres a hobby shop in our town it might bring more people to thew hobby which then generates more buisness.
i know its going to be a challenge but hey if i dont do it some one else might and if they did and sucseeded id be gutted i didnt make my move first.
the track im on about doing will only be a small one to start that might get some kids off the street and into the hobby with a place to go and use the cars and then later on build it up aslong as buisness is good.
well thanks for all the advice chaps good and bad its all advice needed and once its all up and running id like to think id see some of you there
