Maybe we could strike a deal on the runway. I don't know if they would give SSS a spif for the ad or not.

Be interesting to have an event at 10' above sea level, especially for us normally aspirated guys.

And of course, Florida ocean side property is so cheap . . .  :roll:

Once a buyer is identified for the shuttle runway facilities, someone should contact them about using the runway for land speed racing.

Well, it used to be Los Angeles . . . 50 miles north of Fresno now.
Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.
