Action City Construction Site Visit.

Here's a view of the construction from Interstate 94 and the first time we see our logo beyond the computer screen. Everyone knows I get all mystical about the Interstates, but here's the bottom line: Action City is on a road 1614 miles long. It runs from Billings, Montana to Port Huron, Michigan.

This is where the indoor Go-Kart track will go with Zander and Kevin for scale. Click for the huge-o-rama view. We had a chance to race indoor Karts on our research trip to Michigan. Even at only 15 mph, zooming around a tight track was wicked fun.

We probably won't get out there again for about five weeks when they're ready to start building on our designs.
