    I know they have checked out the "obvious" options and that they haven't worked out for various reasons. I have my fingers crossed for positive news. If nothing else comes up I'll plan to hit Loring next year - as it's only once a year I can afford the travel. Still, wishing for a new track for the ECTA!

      If you build it, they will come.

        If I hit the Lottery there WILL be a track in the Wilmington, NC area - a dedicated LSR facility though I MIGHT rent it out between meets.

          At least two miles long, straight as an arrow, flat as a board and wide as a six-lane highway !

            AND with permanent buildings, a radio tower, and wired electricity to all areas needing it (no generators needed). Think I'll keep the rain grooves like at Wilmington - those worked great. Come on, Lottery!!!!!

                    Dan, when is the Loring event?
                    I've been looking at google & faceplant to no avail, yet.

                      Me too. Their September meet is past I think, but I was hoping for the 2018 schedule. Maybe they haven't decided yet?

                        I too was looking for the Loring 2018 schedule. I managed to find the dates for this year's summer event and tried to find a hotel for next year based on that week of July. It's 1400 miles one way and falls close enough to my (our) 15th anniversary that it'll either be a family event or a non-event.
