This may get me into track racing. I'm 25 miles away!!!

No word yet on whether racing for bikes will actually be done on the road course but im pretty sure alteast trackdays will be in order

[nhbubba]

Are they posting updates to FB like NYST did?

[GingahNinjah]

not so much... one of my cousins that goes to the speedway for the current races pointed me to the new website today

FYI, the actual course is a little different than the picture.

And I don't believe there is any plans to hold motorcycle races - only trackdays for bikes. I believe there will be car racing on the new course though.

I was looking at how tight the track map looks and thinking how fun it would be to ride a 250# machine, actually. Berm? In their oval?

Just an old pic from the track I was referring to haha.

April 1978 at Thompson, CT. Last turn under tree onto the Speed Bowl, Mike on Yamaha TZ-750E.
