I would spend 2-3 hours on my driveway everyday..

So, what did you do today?  Oh i've just been driving around on my driveway... :lol:

Think you could do something like that on a smaller lot? Like around 120 by 840 feet?
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

I've thought of that before or something similar to it.

With a gate at the end of it you would never have to worry about "traffic". I bet the neighbors love it when the guy gets home.

Of course I'm an excellent driver. Dad lets me drive slow on the driveway every Saturday.

I'm doing that when I build a house.

At least 2 to 3 lanes wide.. similar to a lot of small road courses.

Compare it to the width of the neighboring road.

Narrow. The road looks like a very narrow 2-lane, soft-shoulder country road. That looks kinda narrow and more suitable to a small car, or a kart or something.

Still, it's very cool and makes me wonder what the homeowner drives or does for a living.

I ran the address through google maps to get a better angle on the road in front and it is definitely just a two lane, no shoulder country road (a relatively narrow two lanes at that). So, I'd say the "track" is only one lane wide so the owner is definitely not lapping it with regular sized cars.

If he only runs one car at a time he could.

Well he could drive one car on it, but I don't think he could really push it.

As long as he doesn't screw up too badly, I don't see why not. Autocross courses are just as narrow.

Isn't the Ring not much wider?

Karts, motorcycles, whatever he has.

I'm disappointed there was nothing on it when the sat picture was taken.

If they would have published these this time last year, I would have ask to rip around that thing in a silver Enterprise Magnum.

Quick, someone find me a race track in someone's front yard in Hampton, VA!

Well, looking at the car in the picture, at the house next to the track, it looks like it's be wide enough to have fun on, at least two cars wide. So you could apex a corner and go wide on entry and exit. More so than on an autocross track, and that's a ton of fun.
Like a fine Detroit wine, this vehicle has aged to budgetary perfection...

That would make a fine cart track as previously stated. Most likely for family and friends.
