Its an Affordable and Legal Racing Track for Drivers and Riders in New York
I want to start this by saying I have never gone this fast on a motorcycle and I don't plan to but I know many people who enjoy this level of riding. Imagine being able to open up your motorcycle or even your car on a track at enclosed track speeds.
I discovered a big kid playground in Harpersfield, New York where bike and car enthusiasts can hit the track and fly. NYSt - New York Saftey Track is waiting for you if you are a speed junkie.
