The CNYRP is about 2 hours and 30 away from us. > LRP Lime Rock Park? LRP is 80 miles from Albany. 2.5 hours is about the same distance to WGI from Albany, and don’t forget Monti. Don’t get me wrong, any new track is a good thing. The problem is they need to be booked to be sustainable. The good thing is smaller tracks like this may attract more club events at a lower cost from clubs running them, compare to popular tracks around the area. They should really add a dedicated Drift course instead of spending alll the money on a fancy grand stand. A dedicated dirft course will attract a lot more business and provide a venue for drift clubs to host competitions. If they can create a venue than can do it all, I am sure they will have no issue getting it booked almost all year round. I am moving the thread to Auto for more exposure. Thanks for the info! --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/new-race-track-in-central-ny/262105)._
