since every other organization has bailed on MSR-H due to cost reasons, there was plenty of dates for NASA TX to pick from. probably the only reason we got the 6 weekends we have. had NASA TX planned 7 events, there would probably be a 4th MSR-H weekend on the schedule.
i think w/ EC now nearing completion, MSR-H will take even a bigger hit.
just my .02. look for this track to fail as they keep raising their rental costs as the market saturation is about to take a 33% increase in the next year.

SCCA has proposed to spend $50K and build a permanent structure at MSR - H... and in return lower rates... but then again SCCA has a large group of volunteer workers...

Yep -- I'm older than I look.

Seriously -- Dad owns seven of those things. I learned to wrench on a 1911 Model T.

Don;t think I could get one into AIV, though.

..... theres another place near Texas City getting renovated, cant think of the name.

That track is Grandsport Speedway - there have apparently just finished paving the new 1.4 mile track to replace the temporary 1 miler laid over the old airbase concrete, and it will be operating before the end of this year. Another 1.? mile section is scheduled to be built next year, and they will be able to run both of there as a single track eventually.

so with glenn's list of tracks in 2010 we should have 9-10 tracks to chose from. Run each track once a year for a 9-10 event schudule plus nationals with no drops. start in feb. run till nov. sounds like nascar.

Wonder how much power we would be down at their altitudes....? did they retune for more dense air at hallet?

Depending on what happens in my situation, I might tow back up to hallet in May for a Comma Event....

[jeffburch]

There is a discussion on that exact point in there somewheres.
