In his front yard, this man built America's largest private racetrack

Nice! If only every man could have a race track in their front yard.

I wonder if he's Adopting?

Seems like it would have been easier to say he was going to put in a new Subdivision, then not sell any of the lots.

We've several nicely paved roads in open fields around here, complete with 45 degree PVC trees.

There is a huge subdivision called Port St. John near my Mom's house. After the Apollo program ended at KSC, they had about 50 square miles of streets built out, all with no houses. Mile after mile of perfect pavement, signs, etc. But nobody there. Needless to say, it made for some really fun episodes on bikes and in cars. There was even a pretty regular drag race meet on one of the main streets every Saturday at midnight. The cops finally busted that, but you could still tear it up elsewhere.

Florida has several subdivisions that they never built houses on and they are a regular place for the street/track junkies. Only problem I've experienced with these places are curbs and convex surface for rain run-off. Fun though.
