Grand Sport Speedway now open...

We had different rules for standing starts back then.
(This is on the front straight.)

What the Hell are you doing to my car?

Jerry,
Sorry the let the cat out of the bag and I hope Eric didn't describe your car as an "adult-owned creampuff Sunday driver". :wink:

He did say something about only being driven on Saturdays and Sundays and only twenty or forty minutes at a time.

Like Pat Lindsey's blown LS motors at the Nationals:

Went down between rainstorms yesterday...

Track is fresh asphalt, curbs are in but they still need to do some backfilling. Track was fairly wide, layout seemed ok and seemed to have good flow counter clockwise after a handful of parade laps. Not sure about the track base - in the past there was a damp area affectionately known as the "swamp."

Brief conversations make it sound like their primary focus is the resident school and memberships. I heard $3500/yr (first two years paid up front) for 20 track days per year.

I have a friend in the San Jac covette club that is trying to organize a club event there so I'll have some more feedback after that.

I didn't go.
Mama wasn't feeling well so I kept the kiddos busy so she could relax.
(Watched the 12 Hours of NASCAR @ KC instead.)

If you or RP got pics it would be great!

Imagine a 60 year old, WWII blimb base airfield on native Texas coastal grassland... now imagine a 40ft wide ribbon of fresh black asphalt winding it way over the level ground... sorry no pictures, not that there was much to take pictures of unless you need more photos of C5 Corvettes with bolt in cages and Cobra kit cars.

The video at www.grandsportspeedway.com shows the track layout pretty well. The "classroom" is quite a walk from the track entrance and paddock. I think it's fair to call it a work in progress.

I would like to have pictures of the two old skool big block 'vette roadsters that Mongoose Motorsports had out, far left in this picture, even if they are replicars:

Minimum weight for F-bodies was 4000lbs at the time...made for much better competition.
