The final paving of Thompson's road course was completed last week and from all the feedback, it looks as if it will be a hoot to drive!
The track was able to get a few laps in on a damp surface last weekend, with one of the TSMP school cars (Lamborghini Gallardo!), so check it out!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZZL_5qQsqcIt looks to be a technical track, with sections that will suit small bore/formula cars, as well as a straight that's going to be a blast for the ground-pounders!
The appropriate curbings will be installed over the next two weeks and, with an 'official opening' of the road course slated for June 6th, there is no question that the track will be ready for our event the end of June!
So, if you've been sitting on the fence about racing at Thompson, or thinking that the track wouldn't be ready in time, think again! TSMP is going to be a first-rate facility, and the Vintage Motorsports Festival will be an event you won't want to miss!
The Early Bird registration (Save $50!) ends on May 27th, and the race groups are filling up fast, so get your registration in now!
