As of now, I'm trying my best to drive out there, but if I decide not to, I'll try to see if I can carpool with someone & chip in some $$ for gas!

You are talking about my backyard here... Do you mean Hutchinson Island across the river from Savannah? The road it barricaded off... but there are ways around that to take a few laps after a night out in Savannah.
I've driven that track and had a ride along... while fun it's very tight with almost ZERO run off.
RR is the better track for all of us and IMHO a lot more fun (and fast). I also highly doubt that they would even open Hutchinson for us.


Nope the isle of hope is where they filmed a ton of movies and used to run a grand prix race. My ex wife is from savannah and lived on the isle of hope. I was married at the historic church on the isle of hope. Here is a link to some of the things that can been seen there. You have to know where they used to run the grand prix since its not marked and the roads are open to traffic.

Didn't know that... got any pics? Was it an official track or just public roads that they closed off during races? Where I used to live on Long Island, Vanderbilt Parkway was a race track back in the "Great Gatsby" days... parts of the parkway are still a fun drive especially at 2X the speed limit!

public roads they would close off for the race. Its a scenic stretch of road fun to drive with lots on switch backs. Fun road but you have to take that you don't end up in the marsh.

Got the name of said road? Thinking back to the few times I've been there I think I know the road you are talking about...
