I will be hitting most the NOPI's in the Mid Atlantic this year.

As for the bridge I hope that I never have to go there again, with the motor mile opening soon, I think anyway...

There website says that they start in March so I doubt that.

That being said it looks like the Motor mile will open April 1st with test and tune.

Another damn track with test and tune on Friday nights rather then during the day on Sat. or Sun.

Where is the motor mile going to be? How far from Roanoke?

Anybody else willing to kick in a few bucks to lengthen the motor mile track to 1/4 instead of 1/8th? Count me in for $20 since 1/8 is like phone sex in that its a lot of hassle for not much return .

I doubt it will every happen, I think the 1/8th has been enough of a hassle for them and I think they were turned down for NHRA, so there is no motivation to go for it.

I'd pay too.

As for motivation, they would have people traveling from all over the place to race on a new 1/4 track. Look how far away the closest 1/4 is
