I believe I can sit in this chair also. Is it a lazyboy?

Well, I was just looking at these pics again and it looks to be about as big as Willy B.

Anyone want to go check it out?

I don't think i'd go that far... I was think along terms of "ORM" for useable space, read = far enough away from concrete/hit-able stuff to please the safety Nazi's.

I personally don't think you could set up something "autocross course perfect OMFG ITS JUST LIKE TOPEKA!!!!11 GIMME A BEER!!!!1", but it would be a good outlet to run your car and have fun. Hell, Carter and I had a blast on a course there that had 2 180* turns! It also had some good straight-a-way speeds, though(along the stadium seating area).

Make it a two lapper and you got some fun.

Well, we can get 90 cars through ORM with minimal overlap, so it might be worth a shot.....good future school location.

Exactly. A school, a T-n-T, or just a place to keep the rust off if need be. I'd say Bristol is still the best location, but they all can't be "the best". ;)

We need to move Bristol about one hour closer...

Here is hoping we can get McMinn Co. HS.
