I'd never make it to work on time with a driveway like that.

Very cool. I bet he has a lot of "friends" in the area.

This is a dream of mine. I would have left the back straight straight though.

Awesome. And what makes his place even better is he lives on the water and has a dock for his boat. Not a bad lifestyle he lives!

Here is the link to his house on Google maps...pretty cool

I just went out and took measurement in front of the house, If I do the layout correctly, I think Ill be able to get up to 5.8 mph on the front straight, Maybe the wife will let me do it!

I have seen some pictures of great garages posted on the forum that simply made me drool, but this tops them all!

He is a Chevy man. Owns a couple GM dealerships and is a Corvette collector with a couple notables being the Oldest remaining Corvette and the first Production C6 ZR1. I am sure you can guess who he is.

That is very cool. I have similar plans that also include a runway but doubt if I'll have the money to do it.
