The "official" scoop on the upgrades for TXR.
As I promised in a different thread, I would post the exact updates or as accurate as I can - when the information becomes available to me.
I've been contacted by the staff of TXR with the information that was requested. This is straight from TXR, no middle man. Straight to me.
The plans for 2008 upgrads are as follows:
*full concrete guardrail to guardrail
*concrete retainer walls
*concrete to the finish line
*(obviously) no grass to finish line
*New water box area
*bathrooms behind fuel station to be upgraded as well
The tentative date to start this rennovations is by the end of the month. There are numerous factors that affect this though - weather and the scheduling of the contractor. The contractor has already been located, the work is going to be done. It just takes time.
Also, The 'racers' will understand - but everyone also needs to remember, the track will be VERY green until there is enough rubber put down. So, don't expect to go the track and make your "best" on the first day it's open.
Keep an eye on their website for the actual times/dates. I'll add details as they happen.
