I'm originally from the Binghamton area. That puts this within a couple hours drive from my parents. Would love to attend a track day there next year. Hoping to have my 818 registered by 2016, plus that leaves a few months leeway if I run behind.

How big is the track - how many miles?

It's a 2.1 mile track if I recall correctly. It's pretty new and really nice looking. I will have videos from the event for sure. Pretty good price for a track day if you ask me!

Best of luck on registration!
