Approved on a 3-2 vote. Said to open as soon as 3/2006.Located right off the West Point exit(220) in New Kent.

 

I'm thinking it will be similar in setup to Summit Point and not as country club as VIR. Should be good if hidden enough in the woods to not further anger the 100 or so protesters that walked out after the vote. Expect lengthy delays due to zoning lawsuits from residents.

 

where is new kent?


which would be closer to chesterfield, this one or vmp?

 

Yea, i live about 1.5 miles away from the proposed area....there is a population of 15 people in a 5 mile radius..NK just doesnt want to expand

 

I am about 25 min from there. Its going to be right off I-64 at the RT33 West Point Exit.

 

Those that wana go to VMP wouldnt be interested in DragonsRidge MP. It'll have turns.

 

Sweet.

 

I live in New Kent so I'm familiar with the situation and area. The track is in the eastern part of the county so if you're in Chesterfield, VMP will be closer...although DragonsRidge is a road course, not a drag strip so it really wouldn't matter much anyway. Its good to see New Kent slowly expanding, it should bring in some decent businesses.

 

Whats that like 4 hours from Va beach? I wanna go to a good road course but I'm not going all the way out to VIR.

 

Try 1 hour to go to New Kent from VA beach, it's about 10 miles past Williamsburg. I was hoping it would have a drag strip seeing as it's only 15 minutes away from where I live.
