i know they have been trying to do this for awhile now but back in august progress was made and it looks like it just might happen. still a long way to go but i wanted to make my fellow RX7 owners aware.

I just read a little more. This track is going to be in Douglassville, PA, not NE PA. Douglassville is just a bit west of Philly, and only a half hour from my house.

NOW I'm excited
