New track in NY

[tbonehedge]

Anybody heard of this?

http://www.nysafetytrack.com/track

100 miles from my house, no tolls, no goat paths thru Vt., and best of all NO NJ TURNPIKE!!!!!
Anybody have any additional info on this place, the website is pretty lame so far.

You have been on the WERA boards too much...........

[tbonehedge]

I've never been on the WERA boards, a trackday buddy emailed me the link. Why, whats the scoop with this place?

[RocketPunch]

In case anyone missed it, they are also looking for instructors for their superbike school. http://www.nysafetytrack.com/school

Opening May 2013 ( http://www.nysafetytrack.com/events). I don't know the dates of the construction pics, but my guess would be that May would be aggressive.

Who's that behind Shane on the home page pic?


(and for the rest of it... believe it when I see it. How many of these deals have run out of money long before any pavement touched dirt?)

I was thinking the same thing. Similar layout to Thunderbolt.

[DankDirtyBird]

If this is ever completed, I'll go there for sure.

Except it's a lefty track.

2.1 miles w/ 18 turns? Sounds like that's gonna be a lotta work.

[Evadd]

First saw it a few weeks ago on the YZF forum I help admin. I hope it works out!

From the FB pictures it looks like quite a bit of elevation change too.

So far no one has been able to get permission to disturb a large enough cow population to build a track in VT.

We are in Vt., everywhere is far away..

I do hope this happens, it would be nice to have a track closer and without the issues of getting to NJMP ( 7 Hours -Traffic - $80+ in tolls )

Looks promising! I am literally at a center point between this, nhms, and njmp. All take about 3.25hrs exactly to get to

for as much work as they have put into this it still seems very up in the air.

Calabogie is only just over 6 from you. and shouldn't be any traffic and less in tolls.





I've driven 16 hours to get to Grattan Raceway in MI every year for the last 5 or 6 years now. a little over 4 hours to get to NY, yeah I can do that but I'm not holding my breath on this place. Club Motorsports in NH is never gonna happen. Bluegrass had pavement put down but never opened.

[drinkingmymilk]

Yeah, my bet is this isn't happening. http://harpersfieldmotorcyclesafetytrack.wordpress.com/ mainly, http://harpersfieldmotorcyclesafetyt...l-information/
