January 2013 = I just rented a tiny house on an L-shaped 5 acre lot (moving in 01/15/13).
- the lot is 1 acre wide, 3 acres deep + 2 acres off to the left at the back.
- track = 1x3 acres at the back - I'll post a better sketch eventually.
Over the next year, I want to build a backyard GoKart track using a Laguna Seca layout.
- not really accurate scale or elevation, but a few truck loads of dirt can build a mini-corkscrew!
I'll start with a used $500 "yard kart" like Manco or Trailmaster to groove in my layout.
- maybe that will be enough fun?
Eventually - I want something like this ~ or these!
- if I go that route, I would start racing real local events too...
- I have the truck, trailer, tools, etc.

I will edit / update this top thread as things progress...
