They are supposed to link the 2 tracks together.

Plans are to hold one of the regional races on the new track, possibly in June.

I'm instructing there at a private day on the 28th. Hope to get a good look at the new part.

I think the guys going to the private day this month got a good deal.
$200

30 car limit

No sessions, go on track whenever you want, all day.

No novice drivers.

Was the helicopter pilot Woody from the Gridley/Colusa area? He has a cabin up at Lake Almanor? Owns a Ford GT?

The vid was just popped off their web site.
You'd have to ask Dave (Vodden) or maybe Shannon.
And David Ray (HOD) might know, he's on the BoD.
