I was at Maxton last weekend, and as most of you probably know, the ECTA lost their lease and is actively looking for a new Venue. I had some conversations about it, and many options are being investigated. They include the shuttle landing facility, airbases and airports. A big concern in dealing with the military is that you are subject the the whims of whoever the base commander is at a given moment in time. you also have security issues of allowing people onto an active military base.
I talked to Joe Timmey this morning, He says that they are still looking, and may end up with more than one venue, but nothing yet.
I did have a thought, the GM proving grounds in Michigan has about a 3 mile straight ( GPS location 42.583603°N 83.684449°W) Anybody know sombody at GM who might be able to pull some strings and get the use of the facility a couple of weekends a year?
Just a thought
