    I've read FIA grade 2 but heard no mention of FIM. Where have you heard FIM approved?

    While more run off is always better, the gravel traps make it adequate. Maybe an air fence or two but honestly I'm pretty happy with that layout.

    While I currenlty live about half an hour away, my company is probably going to move me end of this year so I doubt I'll ever get to ride it.

    The map posted above shows 34 for the "grand" course. Probably 16 or so for the "Grand Prix" course.

    HA HA HA, Right?! If you watch Darryl's video, he says it will be FIM and FIA approved. Sounds like they are catering to all motorsports people. Carts, Bikes, Cars, barstools, motorized coolers, etc.....I think I want to invest in one of the condo/home opportunities he mentions.

    I talked to Russel and the guys at Barber the weekend before the MA races. FIA grade 2.
    Ultimate goal is Moto GP and "they said" they have a letter of intent for 2023, maybe it was 2024 to be on the schedule along side COTA.
    Not a replacement race. So 2 US rounds.
    Considering all the condos, suites & villas I stumped him when I asked - where's the heli-pad?

    Wasn't Ozarks done by some hillbillies and a crayon?

    See a lot of marketing for "club" hopefully it's not a members only track like Monticello or other tracks out there

    There will be a members only track. But the GP track will be for rentals and events.

    Oh and the kart track should be open byyyyy end of year 2022 or 1st quarter 2023??? somewhere around there.

    Or at least someone that owns stock in an Armco manufacturing business.

    How long before people in the "villas" start complaining about the noise? 2 weeks?

    Ran go-karts here as a kid way back in the 90's. Was fun to experience that then watch the late models and figure 8's later that night.

    G2G I feel the need

    I would be interested in a condo/villa at the track if they sell to the public. Wonder who we can reach out to about that.
