Default Porsche plan to build test trach in ATL

Looks like Porsche NA is planning to move the HQ from Sandy Spring, GA to an old Ford Pland near ATL airport. Wondering what else they are planning on that site.

From AJC today...
As part of the deal, Porsche will build offices where the plant was demolished and a test track similar to its Porsche Silverstone facility in England.

That sounds cool, because lets be honest the HQ in Sandy Spring is a bit of a yawn. I once drove there, while on a visit to ATL, I shouldn't have bothered.

Agreed, If you don't know what it is you would miss it.
