Atlanta Motorsports Park

From what the site says it looks like they have 70% of the track paved.

So, when do they plan on opening the track for use and is Sean P. Clarke evaluating the possibility of adding this venue to the 2012 scheduled???

Who's got the skinny???

 

Yeah, they were ready in like February right...

And Bluegrass has a fully paved course that was ready two years ago.

And Nola was ready 6 months ago (and is just now running pavers).

I wont hold my breath.

 

why not? seems like theres alot of people holding theirs?

 

Joe, what do you mean "ready?" Unpaved doesn't sound ready. And you forgot Liberty Bell in PA unless you were just sticking to south of the Mason-Dixon.

 

i think joe was pointing out all the tracks surrounded by a lot of hype that were supposed to be ready a long time ago and are either still far from done or were abandoned completely.

 

Exactly. All of those tracks were supposed to be ready to be ridden on by now.

None of them are. And I dont expect to see wheels turned in anger on any of them this year. And probably not until deep into next year if at all. Just personal opinion.

Like I said, hell Bluegrass has a race track there. It "could" be ridden from what I hear. It wont though. Not anytime soon. Nola JUST started paving like today or something like that, but was supposed to have already had their first event. Same thing with AMP.

 

Never heard of that one. I only know the ones I mentioned because they are all ones I could/would ride if they ever freaking get finished. Tehy are all within a days drive of me. :down:

 

I was just actually looking at this stuff at work today. Watched the Austin track as well. They've got a lot of work to do there.

 

The Austin track has some serious obligations with major world-wide racing organizations.

The promise of money coming in leads me to believe that the track will be much more likely to be on schedule, or close behind.

F1 has committed to racing there. That's a high-dollar draw, and one that they can't afford to screw up.

 

Nola has one whole layer down on the big track already in two days. They are putting two more layers then sealer.

 

stt has all there amp track days sold out...... FOR THIS YEAR LOL

 

You would think with the black eye they got from doing that shit with Bluegrass, they would have learned their lesson right? :crackhead:

 

They layed more than 2 miles of asphalt in 2 days??? Hmmm

 

guess the new management/owners didn't learn from the mistakes of the previous management/owners.

 

NOPEY

 

Where is NOLA?

 

Louisiana I do believe.

 

Isn't there water due south of the city?
