Re: Area 27 track

DaveGordon:
Interesting - does hosting races not introduce a whole new layer of complexity and logistics? Spectator facilities, stands, parking, etc, etc?

Not to mention the inconvenience of having the track booked for practice/quali/races when you want to drive for fun...

Not really. See Mosport Park in Ontario. Like them, we have terrain on our side and we kept a lot of the hills as spectator mounds, those have great sightline to basically the whole course. Might need a foot bridge/walkway between infield and outfield though. That's is under discussion and investigation.

A proper F1 style grandstand is not really needed as the 2 series I mentioned, no disrespect to them, are not F1 nor WEC championships caliber, so the expected crowd will not be large.

All we have is land, so parking will not be a problem either.

Food and drink stands, lavatories can be had as a temporary items for events like that.

Yes they do take away track time from the members, but those races don't run 365 days a year. For the monetary compensation and publicity we will get, we will gladly trade a few days of track time.

Tentatively finished mid August. Perhaps grand opening in September but we will host some private 'scouting' test drives for manufacturers before grand opening.

Maybe you should invite a VIP driver for the inauguration (incl. some driving demonstrations)? Just saying... Smiley

LOL, take the governor off of it and you might get it down to 12:30.

Is Jacques also a contributor, or is he just involved in design and promotion? Looks great, by the way. Nice scenery. Smiley

Thanks. if you put a golf cart in neutral when you're going down a big hill you can really get them moving, but I guess 15:00 will just have to be record for a couple more months.
