Photo of MIR from today up high!

Every pit space at MIR is now striped for trailers!
**
All of the old wood bleachers on North side of track have been taken down!
**
Another shot of the starting line before we pull up all of the asphalt in the middle.
**
Getting the final grade touches done on equipment pad and new starting line building.

I think I'm going to make the trip from Cali to MIR this year just to watch the WCF. I wish Famoso Raceway would do something like this lol

Re: MIR is making some Facility Improvements!
i raced at this track back in 06 and was completely amazed at how well the tracked worked and it is good to see a track owner putting back into the track, which will only help bring more people to it in the future.
i really hope we will be able to come to WCF this year.
out of all the tracks i have ran at this by far one of the best out there.

Why do you have to be on the other side of the country dammit! Looks good. Love seeing when a facility upgrades and makes things better for racers. For those who dont get to get over there to watch in person...it only makes the videos we get to see better and the events grow.

CLM Motorsports will be at Mir any chance we can!
Recognizing issues and resolving them early, sign of a great owner.

I'm sure every person who attends events appreciates seeing a proactive approach. I'm sure I speak for the entire racing (and spectating) community when I say we all wish more track owners were this way!

Re: MIR is making some Facility Improvements!
Even though I have never had my car out on the track, I have been to MIR several times now for the WCF's and I have always been impressed with the track.
Who knows maybe this year I will actually bring something to run in the WCF's. Even if I do not I will still be attending the race.
Keep up the good work at MIR, it truly is a nice facility to bring a race car.

We are now ripping up all the asphalt in the center of the starting line and getting everything ready for new concrete next week!

Working on the final grade for the expansion of the asphalt pad area behind the water box. This dirt area you see here will all be paved for MIR's safety equipment and new starting line building!
