Well I was there... it was rather interesting.  About 40 someodd people there, mostly men.

Met two of the partners.

I get to see the track on Sunday :) so that'll be nice.  Can't wait till I get out there and start seeing the cars/motorcycles going around  ;D

And you know, the 511 and Tadlock road are a little creapy driving on at 10:30 at night.  It's pitch black, and every other turn/hill you think you're about to drive off a cliff... definitely had no problem staying awake coming home from the course  :D

yummy yummy yummy!!!

That track is beautiful...  the only flat thing on that track is the parking areas.  They took us on a little tour around the track, on a trailer pulled by a pickup truck.  It is definitely going to be a challenging track.  Got to watch a couple of the owners/investors run around the track in their own cars... yummy... it's going to be fun being that close to the cars as they run around the track!!  ;D

It wont be open to the public this year, still more construction and landscaping to be done... the track itself is done and there's a big fence around the whole property...

I'll be there this weekend, I'll bring the camera and try to get some pictures if I can.
