Interesting Features
Crazy house of the 70's, fairly intact go-kart track, and a 'rare' example of an 80's "Innocenti 3 Cilindri S" in the garage, as well as an early 70's SkiRoule snowmobile.

The sled is gone, and the Innocenti has been massacred.

History
Unsure as of yet... my former boss told me he used to race his Porsche on a go-kart track north of Picton back in the 80s, and I'm guessing this is the place.

Update... The track belonged to Paul Long. This IS the place where Solo races were held, where my former boss used to race his 914. Co-worker tells me it closed around '92.

Future Plans
It will probably be demolished, although I'd love to see the track re-opened since it DOES look pretty salvageable.
