For those of you with to much time on your hands

Looks like a former great track became another great "track".

 

Fuck those golf assholes, Bridgehampton was a great track,
and its closure was a terrible loss for the racing community.
It doesn't deserve to be an oddity in the golfing world, it
should still be a working track, rough as it was.
And that golf course is polluting the shit out of the water
table with all of the fertilizers and pesticides they pour on it.
The small amounts of gas and oil that the track was responsible
for spilling caused far less pollution, but I'm sure the residents
who welcomed the track's closure don't realize that. All they
cared about was that the noise was gone but they don't realize
what a loss it was for the great American tradition of racing.
They can suck my dick.

 

I can sadly see this fate for Mosport in the next 10-20 years. Too many rich twats moving in around here, and nothing good ever comes from that. Plus it sits in the "greenbelt" extortion area, so I can see it having to pay a pile of environmental impact fees in the future. They aren't invented yet, but they will be......

 

As a non-Californian, I wonder how serious a threat Laguna is under? Is it all hype??

My pappy said, "Son, you're gonna drive me to drinkin'".

 

In ‘85 and ‘86 at Riverside (with ARRA) after picking up a (abandoned on the curb) XS650 and thinking it would make a good road race platform … one obvious truth was that Willow Springs was (orders of magnitude!) safer than Riverside.

 

My father once called that the longest paved MX course he'd ever been on. lol Great layout, marginal upkeep on the surface. As I understand it, you could pick the line out by where the weeds growing up through the cracks were beat down. Dad raced there from 1979 to 1982. "Never won anything...never finished last!"

 

Did he perchance have a Bocephus sticker?

 

On his 442?

 

what do you think he did for fun man?

 

The track closed in 1999,as a golfer and motorsport enthusiast I was merely pointing out that it looks like a great golf course. It must be exhausting to be so angry all of the time.

 

Who is angry all the time? I let that anger out instead
of bottling it up. You have it all backward.

 

I wish I knew of the track in Wentzville back in 1988. I received a promotion at work, and was assigned to work in Wentzville July and August of that year. The group I was a part of moved to Alpharetta (metro ATL) over Labor Day weekend.

 

Gateway Raceway was the WERA National 6 hour in 1985, so pretty sure Mid-America was closed around then. I was last there Memorial Day weekend in 1983, soon before I moved to the mid-eastern US.
