The blue bathrooms will be moved to the sportsman pits once the tower is completed.

Nothing will be done halfway!
This is a Bruton Smith track. Take a look at anything else he's built. It's all first class like Las Vegas - everything's paved, several large stadium type bathrooms under the grandstands and scattered around the facility, not a bad pit spot anywhere. The guy does it right.

I'll second that.

funny how that track is that far along then you look at my home town track Mansfield that has been sitting the same for over a year.

What a joke!

As a point of interest, Smith built Vegas in 90 days from the bare ground up. They were still finishing up as we pulled in for the 1st National event.
It's amazing what almost unlimited money and ego can do.

I also suspect the fact that he has built a bunch of them saves time and money because he has an idea the order in which things need to be done and what problems to be prepared for ahead of time. Does anyone know if he uses the same contractor to do the building-if so, that could also save time.

I see they are moving along well there with the track.
I wish bruton could get to LI for a track. Our proposed 300 ft. bunny snow hill is never gonna get done, thank god. on sacred ground of the F 14 factory of grumman and its famous runways.
I worked at the montauk manor thursday in east most LI past the hamptons. we asked what is there for a guy to do out here. no more west hampton dragway or bridgehampton race circuit.
the gentleman told us there is nothing to do but shop, eat, drink, and have your nails done, what a bunch of fags, it should sink in the ocean, asap.lol.
