Not being negative. Being realistic. Although the track is cut in. There is very little other than that done, Walls, fencing and lights, Restrooms. They do have some stands they could pull in place but it's going to take a lot of work. Im told they have the old Kokomo lights and will need some more.

They get a crew in there and it could be done by June I suppose. We'll see.

Im hoping it's successful. I'll set up camp at Burg and come down and make a weekend out of it several times a year.

Track was supposed to open last spring and flooding issues stopped it. Then needed permits and a zoning fight took place. Im told they got all that settled.

Track is 4/10ths mile. about the same as Eldora. Turns one and two are kinda egg shaped with three and four being wide sweeping, Sits in the open field to the right of the entrance to the drag strip. Easily visible from East Miami River Road.

Would be great for a BOSS double header and Burg needs a few more LM races too it's not like Florence isn't off half a dozen weekends over the summer.
