This has to be the coolest place on earth. NOT A DRAG STRIP! I real race track on 400 acres!!! [BeaverRun.com](http://www.beaverun.com) — their website Located in PA. 13 miles from Ohio. $160 for 8 hours of track time :bigok: \*\*I do not work for BeaveRun or anything. I just thought you guys would be interested to see some pictures! ![http://img292.imageshack.us/img292/6461/dsc0001ij3.jpg](http://img292.imageshack.us/img292/6461/dsc0001ij3.jpg) **My EVO VIII.** ![http://img490.imageshack.us/img490/9436/dsc0002qd2.jpg](http://img490.imageshack.us/img490/9436/dsc0002qd2.jpg) **The gorgeous view of BeaveRun.** ![http://aycu07.webshots.com/image/23326/2002518877977684817_rs.jpg](http://aycu07.webshots.com/image/23326/2002518877977684817_rs.jpg) **One of the turns at BeaveRun.** ![http://img329.imageshack.us/img329/3007/dsc0004lv1.jpg](http://img329.imageshack.us/img329/3007/dsc0004lv1.jpg) ![http://img388.imageshack.us/img388/1010/dsc0005dp2.jpg](http://img388.imageshack.us/img388/1010/dsc0005dp2.jpg) **Not exactly sure what they use this building for, but it’s a very nice / new facility.** ![http://aycu29.webshots.com/image/21788/2002543228579451682_rs.jpg](http://aycu29.webshots.com/image/21788/2002543228579451682_rs.jpg) **My EVO hungry for some track time :hsdance:** And because you guys always ask, my camera body is a Nikon D50! 🙂 Hope you like! ---

Why does that drag strip have so many curves in it? ---

Yeah BeaveRun is a nice little track! The flat out days however, are NOT 8 hours of track time. You have classroom time in the morning and then you have five (5) twenty minute sessions, with an instructor if you are in levels 1 or 2. And you also get a lunch break…So a little more than an hour and a half seat time on the track. BUT the flat out days are a great experience! They also have some _low key_ auto cross sessions for $30. 🙂 The building you posted pictures, as you can see, has many garages that you can rent out at flat out days if you want. Also there is a banquet room upstairs, the classroom, bathrooms. Down stairs there are also bathrooms. ---

Definitely not 8 hours. They have split the day in to 2 run sessions now. Shit 120 minutes of run time = 600 x 12 sec. passes on the drag strip LOL ---

Plus NESBA streetbikes run there. And a really cool thing called [Super Car Life](http://www.supercarlife.com) runs there aswell. Or you could run yourself…or go watch anytime. But there is usually a spectator fee for events like $5 ---

im not worried about the fee. it would be fun to do for a weekend. i live less than an hour away from it so it would be pretty fun to see some nice cars hit the track. drag tracks get a lil boring ---

Racing is racing, most people can understand the difference. That said, seriously bring your Evo out. For autox locally we have like 2-3 Evo’s that show up pretty much all the time, they would all be willing to help you out. Lapping days is a step up in speed and danger, but still loads of fun. Beaver holds events for both amateurs and professionals, best advice I could give would be to just look at their calender. I would recommend watching a SCCA club racing at beaver, you’ll see some fast drivers and cars show up from all over the place. Honestly if you wanna get your feet wet without damaging metal, go here first and goto one of the days (Jinxxycat just go, or I’ll make Chris force you haha). > **[Welcome to BeaveRun motorsports complex](https://www.beaverun.com/thrills_autocross.html)** > > Welcome to BeaveRun motorsports complex Also long as I’m promoting, we are gonna hold another time trail on the Wilson Kart Circuit at beaverun on September 2nd! I’ll post more details soon. ---
