It seems unnatural that we don't have a discussion topic on the newest track for our region. Paving has finally started and the scheduled opening for Spring 2009 seems possible.

There are pictures of the halfpipe on the Spec Miata group.

This track may well be worth the trip!

I've been watching this one for a while. But discussion seemed a bit premature. They actually had the track on the Conference race schedule this year, but obviously it is a little behind schedule.

Yeah, it'd be faster to go through Yakima with how far east it is.

Woah, more than 20' of runoff!


Thoughts:
1) Off camber turns FTW.
2) Definitely has the makings of a horsepower track. Long uphill straight.

Also, it's a comparable drive (~4 hours) as Spokanistan.
