Talking to Paul, I hear a lot of the tracks which are formed indoor ones attached to a shop are actually a little 'out of town'.

I think the issue for a potential track is the catchment area of racers. In the USA they seem to think nothing of travelling 100miles for a club meeting, compared to the majority of us who consider 70miles too far for anything other than a regional/national. Perhaps we work too many hours to pay for life. Perhaps the cost of motoring and the joys of congestion is worse than USA meaning we have a different concept to travelling.

Personally id like one of these in the UK, something which is reformed every couple of months to keep it interesting, ran properly, well presented and thrived. Id even consider being part of the team to be honest, but the truth is, its too big of a risk in this country.
