Went out there today.......no one was working but there were a few things different. Looks like alot of electrical has been run.....there is big junction box that wasnt there before and and there are several electrical outlet boxes in around where the pit area will be. Also, electrical has been run up into the drivers stand as well as onto the roof to the lighting. So far, there are three big lights mounted on the roof, with what looks to be more I'm sure. There is also some electrical boxes on part of the surrounding track wall, that is no doubt for people that pit outside of the pit area on bigger race days.
There was also a bleacher by the track, which I'm sure will end up inside for spectators.
I know Dan was doing alot of this by himself, and I'm sure money is probably thin right now, hence the slow down of work. There is definately some concrete to pour which isn't cheap. He's probably had to take a break and do some "normal" work to get some more cash flow going. The place is looking good.

If someone (hint hint) lets him know there are a lot of willing hands to help carry the work on, it will get done faster right?
If he has all the help he needs, thats fine, but we have been waiting to hear from someone in touch with Dan. If he needs free services, I can offer my building skills and tools.
Maybe we will get lucky and he will open sooner than later.

I would like to help when i can as i need a better place to run other than REV and the track in Riverside, my son is learning the ropes and rev is just to busy for a newb and the riverside track is just not taken care of.
I think Dan is really taking his time on this to make it the best it can be. There has been a lot of progress and before we know it, it will be ready. We are gonna be lucky to have a facility as good as this one is going to be. I know he is very passionate about this adventure. It will be really good. I cannot wait myself. I am itching like krazy to run at good track and so close.

Drove up to the track this evening and took some photos. Since my last pics, some of the tables are up and electrical junction boxes are in place. Lights for the track are behind pit row.
