thanks brian.

for a little clarity. we have land (approx 2600 acres) and more importantly, we have a land use permit (generally difficult to get due to residential development). this permit is for life and without qualifications (most land use permits for tracks now days have review periods where you can lose your use permit). we are in negotiations with a prominant track designer (and you may be surprised who it isn't) and will announce when ready.

this will be a country club style track where club members will have specific access depending on the level of membership. the track will be designed to have differenent configurations. the member will have access to one of the configurations and the other(s) will be rentable to clubs. there will be a few occassions were the entire circuit could be rented. likewise, there will be time where members will get the circuit. clubhouse for members, etc.

there will be other race venues as things build up or as others may want to run their own enterprise on the property.

thanks for the congrats. now we go to work.

ppir is now problematic in that it is an expensive track, small, roval, amateur only, and could lose it's use permit when the 600 acres on its south side gets the residential development going. am i biased because i'm involved in the genoa track? yes. but the ppir problems are why we are where we are and why several tracks in colorado have closed and more are on the chopping block to be closed within 1 to 2 years.

Heck yeah, we're running short on tracks. Between PPIR and SCR closing, I haven't raced since October or November....
