They had my car on display there a couple of years ago. Hate to see this. It was posted on twitter early this morning and I was like WHAT?. Who knows whats gonna happen. They are building a really nice road course next door and got a lot of really good things going on.

Glad they were able to save the only remaining '83 Vette.

I believe that ZR1 roadster was a one off.

I'm honestly surprised this wasn't caught sooner from soil samples during construction. Maybe they didn't have to do anything like that since it wasn't a tall vertical structure.

It was built 20 Years ago in an Area that people now know has Sinkholes. 20 Years ago they didn't have the Sonic Testing that you need for that Depth

Ah ok. I thought it was the new section that was recently built.
