Radical expansion for Nevada track
Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch in Nevada has expanded its track, with a new loop designed for Radical racing cars.
The circuit, located at Pahrump, has added the 1.5 mile loop to the existing course, which is home to race car importer/distributor Radical West Racing. The new West Track, also known as the Radical Loop, was designed specifically with the Radical race cars in mind and consists of off-camber and banked turns as well as an elevation dip, aptly named “The Drop.”
Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch has also added a 5,000 square foot building to house the Corvette advanced driving school and host corporate events. It plans to break ground on a new 8,000 square foot facility which will be the new home of Radical West Racing.
“The Corvette programs have become so successful that they monopolized most of the available track time on the original 2.2 mile course. The need was there to develop a new track to expand our corporate events business, offer track rental to our existing clients, and have a dedicated course to run the Radical race cars,” said Dave Petrie, general manager. “We are very excited for what 2006 has in store.”
The circuit and driving school are owned and operated by John Morris and Brad Rambo. Located just 45 minutes from Las Vegas, Spring Mountain Motorsports provides cutting edge Corvette performance driving and corporate entertainment programs as well as sales, distribution, driving instruction and arrive/drive track events in Radical race cars.
