Um, it's a little close to the main road(noise) but other than that, it's cool. I have a few friends who definitely want to try it out.

Close to the main road????

It looks like there is just enough room for a guard rail between the course and Pension Road.

Not very much room for a run off. but then again everybody here drives so well that no of our cars will leave the track surface :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

I know of a guy that ran his '73 Mustang on the road course back in December, he hit over 100mph on the straight :eek:

Looks great for go-karts you mean...I think it was poorly designed with not enough runoffs...if they even let cars on, once the first one winds up on Pension Road they'll ban cars...shifter karts anyone!?!?!?

I bet most of us would get well into the triple digits on the straight...how long is it anyway?

That will be great,, the road couse is more of my thing as opposed to the drags.. but as someone said above it is close to the road, should be interestion to see what happens when someone goes flying off the course on that side of the track...

Guess they have never seen a track car roll 6 or so times and make it over an embankment. :yesnod:
