    New Track

    When I was at the Old Hickory Chapter BMWCCA post holiday party today, I found out that the National Corvette Museum is building a road course accross from the museum and factory in Bowling Green, KT. Should be open by September and there's already a BMWCCA HPDE scheduled for the weekend of October 5, 2014. Time to start saving and prepping. And definitely cool, being on a brand new track in its first month of operation.

    Very cool! I hope that it proves to be a successful track in a successful location.

    I'm sure it will. It'll make a nice weekend getaway for the corvette guys it sounds

    Personally, I wouldn't want to be on a track the first week.

    Remember Austin COTA? Covered in dust, no rubber...just a slippery mess

    I'll head out probably in 2015, but will be excited to see how it turns out and the overall response.

    New Track

    Agreed, I definitely wouldn't want to be on it before a decent layer of rubber is put down

    New Track

    Because of

    a) cost of land

    b) permits required

    c) homeowners nearby that prevent it

    Hell, there used to be a 2.7 mile 12 turn track 10 minutes from where I live. Last race was in 1956.



    It now looks like this

    Sound it a biggie.

    Mid-Ohio is in the middle of no where...you go through a neighborhood...drive a couple miles and it is literally located between farms.
