I was there last weekend with the Mumpkin and the FL gang.

Don't think I can make it this week.

I wondered if they ever raced there any more. This is one of those former AFBs that SCCA raced at the the old days.

Dixie SCCA runs there regularly. It has an interesting history, all the way back to a single engine training field during WWII. It's used a lot for ag purposes now.

They are about to triple the size of the track area, so it should be fun.

It's pretty close to me.

Not quite triple, unless you know something I don't, but considerably increase. It's extremely Nebraska-like concrete. Awesome Nationals practice. And the Dixie folks are good people.

I'll have a GRM-themed tent with me so I'll be easy to spot if anyone want to say hi. I usually have lovely prizes to share with nice folks.

I only know what Arty showed me. I guessed, but that is what I do for a living, so I am usually pretty good at guessing.

But no, I didn't measure it. I could be wrong. I trust you (though I trust Arty more).

Will do. He might be co-driving if he can't get his car back together. Although it didn't look too terrible. Burned up a rectifier, which should be an "any bike shop in town" kind of piece.

And from what I hear from Dixie the planned site expansion hasn't gone through yet. Still an awesome site, but it'll be downright epic once they add more space. I guess there's some fences to move and some cracks to fill before it can be considered truly expanded.
