...but in the Miata. 
Spring is here in the northeastern USA.
I drove the Miata 300 miles last Saturday (round trip) down to Millville, NJ (near Cape May), to the New Jersey Motorsports Park (NJMP), a new facility that will offer another choice for those of us racing in the NYC / Metropolitan area. It should be mostly ready to run in the next few months.

NJMP is partly owned by Harvey Siegel, the guy who upgraded VIR into a truly high-class place. There will be many of the same amenities including trackside condos ($450K each), a nice restaurant, year-round garages and convient pick up form the fly-in service to Millville airport. Our host was Lee Brahin, the other owner of NJMP. He's a nice fellow and has big plans for events such are vintage races mixed with air shows. He's also working on deals with stuff going on at nearby Atlantic City.
The place will actually have two road racing circuits plus a kart track, a paved oval and an off-road ATV track.
The road course are called "Lightning" and "Thunderbolt", in honor of the WW II planes that did training in this area. The facility is adjacent to Millville airport and the entire area was a WW II US Army-Air base.
While excavating for one of the road courses, they dug up an inert WW II napham bomb, but otherwise, it's been smooth sailing.
Later in the year, I'll tow the Spridget down to this place for a VRG vintage event. And it would be great to drive the MGB down to NJMP at some point too.
Here's a video clip that shows a slow lap of the place.
