Secret testing facility in the high desert that doesn't officially exist...it's like the Area 51 of proving grounds

Hmm, 40 mi. NE of WSIR...Somewhere in there, there's a long weekend begging to be set up:
Thursday at Streets
Friday at the Big Track
Saturday at the HPG road course
and "Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!!" -- high-speed testing on the oval!

Maybe we could work a deal with them where we would let them collect data from our cars if the let us use their track. We might even offer to throw in some free consulting time so they can pick our brains and get our input on stuff . Or would this be too sweet a deal for them?

We might even allow them to do some market research for a small fee by having us test driving their vehicles and give them feedback.

I'm beginning to think we could even make some money out of this.
