yeah, but they know they're moving next to a racetrack and runway when moving there. that's the unique draw. otherwise, there are thousands of gated communities they can move into. i imagine the people that will be living there are going to be former and current race car drivers and millionaires with some badass rides. they'll be up at 8am anyways.
