Was that Racer's Ranch? They were advertising on the radio last year.
http://www.racersranch.com/
Their last press release on their website about construction was dated Dec 22 2006 and had said they were supposed to start construction in Q1 2007. Does anyone know if they've actually started laying pavement? Even once construction begins, it seems to take a long time to build a racetrack...

We have two in the Dallas/Fort Worth area that have become a reality:

http://www.eaglescanyon.com
Both are inexpensive and one is brand new. I'm a member of both. There are several others in the works but I don't see them coming through.

This one. http://www.bergrennenring.com/ I don't think they've aquired land yet, or at least hadn't last time I heard. Maybe someone from the Hill Country region knows more up to date info...

Okay, now I'm interested in this thread. You see, Carolina Motorsports Park is getting ready to announce a "track country club". Up to 52 days track use, depending on price. (No other details provided at this time.)
Since I have no idea if this is good or bad for me, I need your input. What exactly is your firsthand experience with track clubs? Do they limit the ability for clubs (NASA, PCA, SCCA) to rent the track? Or do they run during week days? Does "The Club" run open track, or session events (ala DEs)?
And yes, I have this odd feeling I’m going to get priced out of my favorite hobby….

Some of these places seem to be very expensive.
The new one in Georga has a whole housing development built around it like Golf course. Autobahn West has membership dues close to 100k! It is a lifetime membership, but...![surrender](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/surrender.gif)
Is anyone a member at a place like this? How does it work?

What track in Georgia are you speaking of? There were some rumors of one like so many others but I haven't heard anything coming to fruition.

I've seen the new layout, 2 tracks that can be run either way, connected to run either way- same as before. There is space available for bungalows by the track which wasn't available before.

I've found it interesting to note the wide range of pricing at these clubs across the country. My membership at MSR seems very reasonable compared to other parts of the country. Eagle's Canyon also seems to have very reasonable pricing.
George, you joined EC also? Where will you keep the car? Is it closer to your house? MSR is only 30 mins now from our new home, EC is 3 times that for us.

I seriously doubt most will be built. I have direct knowledge of most of these "projects". 'Nuff said.

Does anyone know of any plans for another track in Fla? I don't know of any private tracks like that in Fla. sounds like a possible promising business venture!!!![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
