If that 1,200 feet could be added to it, it would be a mile and a half run with almost exactly 3/4 of a mile for shutdown (21 feet more)

Timing at the 1 Mile and 1.5 Mile would be great!

I just got off the phone with the city official I've been dealing with. They got my proposal. They will be discussing the venture over the next "couple of months". Everyone may now officially relax! lol

Anything added from the discussion on Landracing.com?

Someone on the Ohio forum said the local car club is trying to use it for Auto-X racing. If more than one organization is pursuing it, hopefully it makes things easier. Then again, hopefully one doesn't screw it up for the others...

You must admit, we like to move faster than others. lol
For the record, this will not slow me down at all. I'm going to use the time to prepare even more.

Looks like the Colt needs to show up, too! Swap gears and do the damn thing! That would be awesome to see!

The city officials and Port Authority members have seen my 7 1/2 minute audio/video presentation. I was told by a city official that they were all impressed. Other aspects of the continuing effort to establish a race in Wilmington will be presented to them over the next few weeks. Sorry to be so cryptic, but some of the plans must remain close to the vest until the right time. Thanks to everyone for your input and enthusiasm!

Karl,
I'm gonna try to make it to as many events as possible this year. I'd love to see the first 280 pass on a sit-on bike and watch my buddy break 200 in one of his Corvettes. I'd also like to bring my bike to an event soon. I'd love to see 225 out of it and 170 out of my GF's R6.

Just remember that you can't please everyone and some people never have anything positive to add.
