Anyone hear about the 7 mile track in Indiana called Prairie Hills? I saw the website and it looks pretty cool. Have you guys thought about joining a membership track like this before?
Heres the website

Track looks like it was designed by someone going thru a mid-life crisis - transitioning from a career as a residential subdivision designer to being a crossword puzzle creator! :wtf:

Yeah, I know some one that went to one of your meetings.
A track membership isn't a race license. Some actually prefer competition, and that's why I suppose this is in the "shooting the bull" section.
What's your membership structure? I know of a few tracks that charge $15k and up for motorcycle memberships, plus on going "greens fees".

Do you get a free membership if you can identify each of the 3,600 different track config's and correctly calculate how many corner stations & workers you'd need for each? Where's McLaughlin? He can figure it out.
Are those actually lakes? how does the crash truck manage that?

3600... is that all? At least make it challenging.
I'll get you started.....
1. Go straight, turn left
2. Go straight, turn left, turn right
3. Go straight, turn left, turn left again
This might take a while.....
Maybe this is why NASCAR only turns left!!! :biggrin:
I have to say, that would be pretty cool if you were rich. Oh one thing it doesn't say on their web site, Middle class need not apply. Unless it's for a job.
Build it and they will come...............if they have the cash!!
I kind of like configuration number 1347, turns 45 thru 57 look like they would have an awesome rythem! :biggrin:
if you're a member you can drive on the track like this....

Is he calling for directions because he got lost on the track?
Don't make fun of us Hoosiers. Whoever built that track probably owns a traffic cone factory. :biggrin:
Going by the GPS coordinates given on their site, I found a house. No track, no nothing. Maybe the images are old. Maybe they're trying to blow smoke up peoples asses.
I think they are trying to build funds to build a track.
When any of you are all ready to do it, I have the people in place to design, engineer, set up the business model, and develop the safety strategies and certifications to make it run.
Probably want to get an uncle to lend you $10 million for a start depending upon your land cost. We've had two projects, we're just waiting for one that will move through to completion.
There is a town near me that is begging for a track to built there. They had a guy with be ideas but no money.
Where at?
Where I39 raceway was suppose to be built. The town put up the money to hold the land and had a great tax break lined up. I work with people from that town and a wife of one works for the town.
