It's OK but it's too short. I figure he had a few more acres he could have used. :p

One of our very own GT Sprints regulars has a driveway like that! He even has a fleet of karts for friends when they come to visit.

actually burnsey is closer and its not his driveway, its his backyard, puts most kart tracks to shame. Last time I was there they had a F4 out getting rid of the cobwebs

Damn - I must be in the wrong business! :o Shoulda bought that RIM stock back in '97 when I had the chance.

If he ever needs help "tuning" those go-karts...;)

Now use the zoom and look for the race track along the river.

Nice! Kinda looks like a mini DDT. And the street name is pretty funny too!

Hey why not that's pretty much a dream come true I'd say. Get up have a nice glass of orange juice then turn some laps. I'd do it if I knew someone that could cut me a deal on asphalt. How about Goodwood though probable the ultimate driveway.

Hopefully I will be able to tell you about Goodwood first hand if all goes well with our application. :D
