Just wondering if you guys know about the new race track being built in Tooele. This will be the countries premier road race facility when its complete. Its outstanding that Utah is getting a racing complex like this. I know I'll be attending a few races when they open. They already have some of the best racing series in the country schedule for 2006. And I'll make one suggestion.... If you have never seen motorcycles on a road circuit I suggest you hit the June 16-18 races. I promise you will not be disappointed.

OVERVIEW
The design philosophy of Miller Motorsports Park has led to the creation of a national standard for road racing and karting which is equal or superior to any existing North American facility, and which attracts a high level of enthusiast participation by competitors and non-competitors alike. Miller Motorsports Park features exceptional corporate facilities designed to attract sponsors and corporate involvement in a wide range of activities, both on and off the track.
From the outset, Miller Motorsports Park has been conceived as a major national road race event center intended to attract premier racing events to Utah and the greater Salt Lake market.
THE RACE TRACK
The road course is a 4.5 mile long, 40-50 foot wide, 24-turn layout that provides a variety of cornering speeds, from 50 mph to well over 100 mph. The fastest cars and motorcycles will approach 200 miles per hour on the track's 50 foot wide, 3500 foot main straight.
The course has four possible configurations. The 2.24 mile East course is a highly technical challenge suited to lower-powered, better-handling cars and motorcycles, while the 2.2 mile West course is fitting for higher-powered, larger cars and motorcycles.
The East course has as many as seven major overtaking areas, and 14 corners, including the three-turn esses, which have significant elevation changes. The feature corner on the East course is the final turn, a 50 foot-wide, 9
