I’m really really looking forward to High Plains. If they can pull off what they’re trying to pull off, it will be awesome! $3.5 million raised for it, 660k from individuals is impressive. All of the car clubs here really want a car track close to Denver (ha!)…i know personally that a lot of members from the Porsche Club have put a ton of time into this.
I honestly thought this wasnt gonna happen. The original CAMA operation fell flat on its face only a couple months into the process. They originally targeted opening HPR in September, IIRC. Better late than never! The track looks fun with all the elevation changes, and the facility could be really nice too. Just wish i could make the groundbreaking ceremony.
Second Creek used to be an old stomping ground for my Dad & I….Pueblo is a fun track (fast…needs repaving badly), never been to LaJunta (its hot there?), CDR/Mead was lots of fun (but they killed that too), and i’ve only spectated at PPIR. Coincidentally, the reason we went kart racing was because they were taking away all of our big car tracks. Now i wouldnt leave. 😀
I think a kart race at HPR would be really good, they could use some of the cutoffs to make it a little less of a high speed drafting chess match. 😆 Road racing looks like fun…but i think i’ll need a shifter for that.
Regardless, I can’t wait to get the 944 Turbo out on HPR…looks like a blast! :~
