STAGE 1 REPORT
Steel City R/C Speedway opened in April of 2018. The facility houses a 13-corner, 250’ x 125’ (76m x 38m) paved on-road race track designed to suit anything from 1/10th scale to 1/5th scale radio controlled cars. We are located inside the beautiful Auto Club Speedway, surrounding our participants with a great racing atmosphere. Our goal in opening “SCS” was to give Southern California a world-class racing facility for years to come, and we are proud to have been selected as the hosts for the 2019 IFMAR 1/8 IC Track World Championship.
The track is owned and operated by the Goodwine family. Phil and Kyle Goodwine have a combined 55 years of experience in both remote controlled and full size auto racing. Together, our staff has the ability and resources to host the highest level of racing. Our annual events include the largest nitro on-road race in the USA, the KO Propo Grand Prix, along with the PROTOform Nitro Grand Prix, Champion Touring Series, and PROTOform Cup.

auto club speedway
Auto Club Speedway, formerly California Speedway, is a two-mile (3 km), low-banked, D-shaped oval superspeedway in Fontana, California which has hosted NASCAR racing annually since 1997. It is also used for open wheel racing events. The track is owned and operated by International Speedway Corporation.
On April 20, 1994, Roger Penske and Kaiser Steel announced the construction of a racetrack on the site of the abandoned Kaiser Steel Mill in Fontana, California. A day after the announcement CART announced it would hold an annual race at the speedway. Three months later NASCAR president Bill France, Jr. agreed to sanction NASCAR Series races at the speedway upon completion, marking the first time NASCAR made a commitment to run a race at a track that had yet to be built. Construction on the site began on November 22, 1995 with the demolition of the Kaiser Steel Mill. The 100-foot (30 m) water tower, a landmark of the Kaiser property, was preserved in the center of the track to be used as a scoreboard. Construction of the track was completed in late 1996.
In 2000, Gil de Ferran set a the world closed-course single-lap record of 241.428 mph (388.541 km/h) at the 2000 Marlboro 500, a CART event. As of July 2019, this record still stands.
In 2001 the Auto Club Dragway, a 1/4 mile dragstrip, was built outside of the backstretch of the main speedway. That same year, the infield of the speedway was reconfigured to hold a multipurpose road course. In March 2014, the Las Vegas-based company Exotics Racing expanded to California by opening a new 1.2 mile road course at the Auto Club Speedway.
