Default **The OFFICIAL Mid-A Track Lovers Thread**

FC sold me this year on taking my car to the track. I cannot wait until next year to go to Summit Point. But either way I thought since many Mid-A members go to the track on a regular basis, I though it would be cool if we had a thread totally devoted to the track.

There will be some awesome tracks coming to the local area in the next couple of year. The "Dragons Ridge" track complex down outside of Richmond The Dragons Ridge Motorsports Club

Thanks to Poindexter:


and Thunderbolt Raceway complex (which is going to be nuts!) in NJ over the Delaware Mem. Bridge with 11....yes 11 different road courses Thunderbolt Raceway




I'm looking forward to seeing Thunderbolt when it's done

i'm going to be looking for a 16" oem wheel setup for me to mount r-comps on as well as some race pads. and then i'll be set.....oh i'll need a racing harness too

the amount of tracks i do next year of course will depend on the pocket size but i'm hoping life should be good next year.

cale, we'll definitely have to get a tent thingy

If anyone wants to get in on a cheap track car, let me know: http://dpmotorwerks.com/RaceStart.htm

The Excel sheet at the bottom of the page is not updated correctly. I have the right information, and will update the site accordingly.

That may be true, but if you hit a wall with your S2000 and you'll cry. You hit a wall with a $1,000 BMW Beater and you'll laugh shortly followed by grabbing a can of spray paint and touching up the panel that rubbed
My tastes are much more different than Alex's, but I think a Road Course Beater isn't a bad idea at all!!!
