Yea!
Like I'm gonna give you THAT for Christmas.

I was thinking more on the lines of coal......

[RSTPerformance]

Ummm... I think I missed something...

Is this track in the works??? All permits and what not are already aquired and the track is being built or is this another dream? By dream I am not insulting any of the current projects around the country, just hoping that someday one of our dreams comes true close to home

HMMMM This will teach Limerock to Raise the track Rental

[RKramden]

It is the old Monticello Airport.
It was used this spring for a pro rally, and look here
Last year, the plan was to turn it into a Ball Park.
(It was the same person as the developer.) See here or here.

Looks like this won't be on the SCCA rental list. Lime Rocks rental rates are safe...for now.

Maybe even after the Palmer track goes in...there's so much demand from clubs, I'm sure Lime Rock will be happier to rent to the BMWCCA than us anyway.

Jerry,

Because you've been a very, very good boy I believe Santa will bring this for you.

If not, I guess you'll have to ask for the AARP discount. :P

Better get that chimney built PDQ!

Well Phils tire service has to let me know where they are because my uncles place (where the race car is stored) is the next town over from this "ultra rich" racing environment. We can get together for milk and cookies some time.

Casino Plan for Catskills Moves Closer to Reality With Interior Department’s Approval

By CHARLES V. BAGLI
Published: December 15, 2006

After more than 10 years of delays, tribal recriminations and opposition from Atlantic City gambling interests, the effort to build a Las Vegas-style casino in the Catskills took a major step forward yesterday.
The Interior Department approved an environmental review of the St. Regis Mohawk Indian tribe’s $600 million project. Proponents say the casino will bring thousands of jobs and tens of millions of dollars in revenue to a once thriving resort area known as the Borscht Belt.

James E. Cason, the associate deputy secretary for Indian affairs at the Interior Department, said yesterday that he was notifying the Mohawks, whose reservation straddles the Canadian border, that the agency determined that the proposed casino on 30 acres next to the racetrack outside Monticello in Sullivan County would not have a significant environmental impact.

The longtime harness racing track, owned by Empire Resorts, which would build the new casino, is currently the site of Monticello Gaming and Raceway. It now features more than 1,500 electronic gambling machines, including video poker, where patrons can wager from pennies to $10. A similar setup with the electronic machines is in place just north of New York City at Yonkers Raceway, which is about 85 miles southeast of Monticello.

“It’s a step in what’s been a long process for Monticello,” Mr. Cason said of the casino, which would include table games like blackjack, roulette, craps and the more traditional slot machines as well as the current electronic ones.

Mr. Cason, who said “there is not an environmental impediment” to the new casino in Monticello, added that he was sending a notice to Gov. George E. Pataki, who has long supported Indian casinos in the Catskills, asking him to concur...........



Phil, put $10 on double zero for me. That should take care of my tire bill.

I walked out of my office in (very) lower Manahattan and parked on the corner were a Ford GT and a Lamborghini Gaillardo. They were handing out brochures for this:

So if you don't want to take the helicopter to the track, or need a ride from the track to the casino.......
