Great news. Dad raced there in the 50's. Would love a chance to run it.

It used to be a major transition on to the oval. It was a typical road course of the 60's-70's with limited runoff and no curbing. I saw some bad accidents there.

It is great to see its revival as a modern safe circuit. It was and should be an exciting track to drive. I like the addition of the series of corners before the road course / oval transtions.

This is great news. I live 45 mins away.

Much nicer since I was heading to Loudon twice a month last year.

Any update on the Thompson track road course? Last year there's some talk about hosting DE there but I didn't see it on the 2013 schedule... so I am guessing it is a no go.. ?

The transitions at New Hampshire motor speedway are brutal.
Hopefully the owners are smarter .NHMS is what I call a Roval.The Thompson track looks like a proper road course.YEE HA!!!
Hats off and cheers to the Owners for doing this project!

$2300/day to rent the track, including the insurance, ambulance and fire support.

Sounds like a fair price......

Are you kidding, at $2300? Get 10-15 guys together, do the math, and lap at will all day long.

Now we're talking!!

BostonDMD

That's my point!
How would you like to organize it and invite 15 guys to share the cost? We all know you got the connections Frank....

Franz - do it!

2300 is to rent the little oval. Renting the road course has to be more since it will require more flaggers and they will be trying to recoup the investment.
