Palmer Motorsports Park
Re: Palmer Motorsports Park
Its so far from the road I can't imagine anyone will ever see it that doesn't drive in. How is the front straight tunnel elimination process going? Can't wait for the Palmer rollercoaster to open. Don't forget me as a track test dummy Fred.

Wow, you can see "all the construction and equipment". You need to talk to the Military and tell them about your xray vision and light bending eyes. I'm sure they will pay you millions for access to eyes that have your powers.

Re: Palmer Motorsports Park
I think Chris is suggesting that one can likely see some of the equipment from the road, but certainly not all the equipment. If I lived across the street, I'd walk over and check it out.
Re: Palmer Motorsports Park
From the street you can see the construction of the entrance and all the equipment at this time there is a no trespass notice on a tree.I doubt they want a bunch of people off the street wandering around. Would not mind a tour though.cfossum wrote:I think Chris is suggesting that one can likely see some of the equipment from the road, but certainly not all the equipment.

I was asking if there is a depiction of how the entrance will look at completion.

Re: Palmer Motorsports Park
good god you could not find rocker ground if you were looking for it !
Re: Palmer Motorsports Park
I believe most of that rubble is from blasting. They had to remove a hill where the paddock will be. But it makes sense because this beats buying and then hauling in all the crushed and processed stone required to make the road bed. Its all been engineered, remove material from one area to be used at another.
It's impressive none the less. I'm really looking forward to having this amazing facility near by.

Re: Palmer Motorsports Park
It is all ledge up here and they are building the track on the mountain top. My garage is sitting on ledge and actually pinned to it via footing and frost walls. Thee snow cover may have stopped the construction for the season now.

Looks great, thanks for posting!boltonite wrote:To respond to a few inquiries, the track layout is basically as shown on the track info page of the web site (http://www.palmermotorsportspark.com), there are CAD-based views from various perspectives, these do NOT depict runoff or banking or buildings and some track refinements (no kink on straight, a corkscrew section):

The casino is (and always was) largely irrelevant. The main impact will be lodging and local infrastructure.
Re: Palmer Motorsports Park
Any updates? What happened to the Facebook pages?
Re: Palmer Motorsports Park
Fred has been putting pics up on Palmermotorsportspark.com.
Re: Palmer Motorsports Park
Any idea why the Face book page was taken down?
Re: Palmer Motorsports Park
The other Facebook page was removed because it was not authorized by the owner and was presenting false information.
Unfortunately, some people believe everything on the internet is truth. So much mis-information was getting posted that it was causing confusion with local neighbors.
RPM you should be more forthcoming in your posts. You are on the local Masslive forums bashing the track and its owners. Apparently you are a true NIMBY. You love to run your cars on the street and track, but just not near your house...
