Additional Race Venue may be announced shortly

We have been working on a deal to race at a new facility. We would be racing as one of the support groups for the New Trans Am series. While the particulars are still being worked out and the announcement can not be made quite yet I can tell you it is a new facility is 2-1/2 miles in length and it would be a 3 day weekend. One last thing is the fact that while it isn't on the other end of the world it isn't a 3 hour ride either.

By Monday I should know more.

New deals in the works

Several new contingency plans and discount deals are being worked on at this time. They should be ready for announcement in a couple of weeks.
