Got a chance to run a few laps at Club Motosport. Nothing too quick because none of the safety systems are installed. Great track - can't wait to run it at full chat.

Video coming but here a few photos in the interim:

Finally got video uploaded. Can't wait to run this place for real.

T8 is going to be the make or break turn because it sets up the uphill run through T9A, T9B, and T10. T14 and T1 will be the other two critical turns to a good lap.

The reasons keep adding up.... See you in 2017.

Re: Palmer, definitely similarities but IMO flow and speeds will be better at CMI plus it has an additonal 110' of elevation (300' vs 190').

Either way we've gone from almost nothing in NE (New England not Northeast) to almost spoiled for riches.

The apex's at Palmer are so late, especially 7, but more improvements being made by Fred all the time.; paddock paved , garages, curbing, etc. The major issue is the run off, jersey barrier or granite, OUCH!
I understand Lime Rock, CMI and PMP are putting together a reciprocity plan for their respective members; that will be great

Hadn't heard that; a nice bonus.

They'll be able to run May to Oct fairly easily. I've run Lime Rock in April with snow flurries coming down - most comfortable I've ever been inside a Cup car.

Such a neat looking track. Definitely want to come out and check it out at some point. Do they have an ETA on officially opening yet? If you see Mario from VSR out there, give him a hard time for me.

Looks amazing. I like that the private track thing seems to be catching on more and more.

Agree - looks great. Corporate Plan isn't a bad option for 5 people at $25k up front and $3k/year each.

Late is an understatement how about blind.
