I should note that I'm looking for steel only.
If you can find me a decently track geo frame for $500, thanks [whoever said we could name a price and you'd give a frame]
Why steel only? If you are looking to race, there are few track racers that actually race steel. You are definitely limiting your options by choosing such a small sub-set (steel) of an already small sub-set (track/FG bikes) of the bike market as a whole. Then you limit it to $500. Sorry, man. You are asking a lot. You can get a lighter, stiffer, better racing frame for your $500 if you are open to considering aluminum.
