New track in Berks, PA?!?!??

[geckert]

Can NESBA do some trackdays here next year??? It is only 20 miles from my house!!! XD

Looks interesting. If they just got approval to start construction, it may be 2011 or 2012 before it's open. Look at what's happened to the Bluegrass construction schedule.

Dudes that's like 10 mins away from me. Looks like they are designing them to run counter clockwise...

 

[crewnutz]

as with any track in the US

believe it when you actually see it and ride on it

Nice map....lets see if more than one of the tracks gets built though. sorry for the pecimism, but we've seen it before. BeaveRun is a good example for that. I keep looking for the legendary "south course"

 

[rob92]

Yeah, but then there's NJMP. Nothing wrong with a little optimism, especially when the track builders seem to be working hard to get it done.

Bring it on, i'm 45min away!

I live in PA and I'm further away than you?? You suck

Still hope it gets built. Would love to have more local tracks to chose from.

 

[Nesba]

we have been watching this for years....the one good thing is Lou has the cash to build it so as soon as it gets finally approval he will bust his ass to get it done.

Stop complaining. Are you coming out to Summit this weekend?

 

[Dave561]

Yes sir

 

[rk97]

hot. i hope it happens.

is it just me, or does the "freedom" course look a lot like BeaveRun with a more dramatic turn 9?

 

[rk97]

somebody near by go to teh 'open house' on the 19th and report back

the comments on their july 25th article link are pretty funny. the 'RVs and junk' poster must be familiar with Nelson Ledges

IF this is a holding on an appeal, the track really may be breaking ground soon. If it's a reversal, there are still more appeals that can be made.

I read the story and I am a bit confused. Did they get the ok to build the track or was that overturned? That is a nice area and not too far (4 hours) from me (BeaveRun, Summit 8.5 hours--NJMP 5.5 hours).

The zoning ordnance was overturned, allowing progress.
