Its slightly better than Bowman as a whole (Bowmans track surface is better IMO) but Bowman supports us and the site.

That track is very wide and long. Easy to get to as well.

Cock locked? That sounds like a problem you and your wife need to work out somewhere besides a public message board

I think the hold up on this deal is the epa. Something about oil contamination in wetlands.

Is this even remotely possibly anything more than a rumor??? I sure would love for greasy ville to open back up... Shoot....where is my employment app. I ll get the track added to the schedule, and get some racing closer to home.

But they dumped methanol barrels also to dilute the VHT. That makes it all better.

Owner said they are going to try and have it opened by april. Just doing little things for now like patching the right lane and waiting to completely repave for next winter. But it does look like it will be there this year.

And it was a guy from NC paid 200k cash
