ground breaking took place today. It was raining all day so I didn't take too many pics because it was too crowded.

Reliable sources say that the west loop has it's first layer of pavement, Sunday the north loop should have its first layer as well.

The web site has updated pic with a couple from the air showing the track layout.

Hey Darrel,

The track looks like it's coming along nicely. All the hard work is paying off. It looks like it will be a really fun track!! Great to see new tracks being built. I hope I can come out and play some day, !!

Keep in mind you will have your chance to drive on it at a future national z convention. Or sooner at a regional z gathering we are having next year.

It is the zccc turn for a regional next year, so we have to plan it around the track dates we have at HPR. In case you don't go to the national convention next year and need to take time off, keep us in mind. So far I'm not sure which of the two preliminary dates we are going to use for the regional.

It looked like the motorcycle club(MRA) had a great time out there.

The tires are starting to come in and when the hardware gets in we'll have tire bolting parties for all the tire walls needed. Until then we have to sort and stack the several different sizes together.

Darrel, give me a call. Jeff Winter Rallye/Sport 303 427 0510

The latest video with a wide angle camera on the racing line.

Work is continuing at the track. Tire walls are getting put together and placed. The last of the tires were delivered last friday, that makes 16k tires. 12k tires are already bundled.

Out of 16k tires we have less than 100 left to bundle and place.
