I was hoping for an easy way to petition the city gov. to allow it. But I guess I'll do it the hard way.

I don't post here much anymore but thought this was interesting.

A better option would be to reopen Greenwood Roadway: http://www.na-motorsports.com/...ckMap

3.0 mile track that operated from '63-'66. Much of the asphalt is still there.

This was featured as one of the "Ghost Tracks" in SportsCar years ago. It's the best candidate for reopening of all the ghost tracks done in that series. It could be another VIR....

Edit: Excellent Greenwood Roadway site: http://www.chuckbrandt.com/greenwood.htm

You boys in the mid-west need to get on the ball....

I could use a track 5 minutes away from me.
