Just received an email with information for Pitt Race.
Has anybody been to the old Beaver Run Track near Pittsburg PA. It is now called Pitt Race. The north track is 1.6 miles long and they are expanding and adding a connecting south track, also 1.6 mile. They plan to have it completed by the opening of the 2014 season. any thoughts.

Hi Mark,
I didn't realize it was that far - mapquest has it at approx 10 hour drive.
I guess the beavers can stay in PA

Pittsburgh International Raceway (Pitt Race for short).
It actually looks like a pretty nice but short track with a little elevation change. With the South track linked it would be over 3.0 miles long. Not sure I would drive 10 hours to get there though.

I have been there with the Mustang with the Vintage folks. Nice little track - a smaller version of NJMP Lightning. I liked it but not the 10 hour tow.
Looking forward to Thompson next year - thats about a 20 minute tow.

I hated racing at Beaver Run. Two land-speed runs connected by turns.
