You read my mind on the Plattsburgh thing. you get in a whole heap of shit just for being on that base. It has a lot of roads that would make it a sick road course though.

Skidmore never shuts down enough for an event and their parking lots are weird. they all have long strips of grass down the middle and are like two levels if you get me.
