you guys realize this will be an 1/8th mile strip and not a 1/4 mile. and the same guy who bought the airfeild is also the former owner of South Mountain. and he let that track turn into a dump.
id like to go myself to see how it turns out and to meet some of you but the LT's i got are going on that day

What did you get Tim Kook's???

If it's only an 1/8 track I really don't care. I've never raced on an 1/8 track. Don't see the point really. It's better than nothing I guess.
