MOBIKROG (NOVO MESTO)
Description Track created in a disused military. It uses some existing roads that connected airport to a missile base just outside the airport perimeter. Some parts of the track have been built from scratch in order to reach at least the length of 2 km. Located in an unusual setting, surrounded by stone huts, ruin of the Cold War, even with an incredible passage of the track under the remains of one of them (see this photo).
The track hosted a race of Euro STC on October 8th 2000, replacing the event that should have been hosted at Mobitrack, the new circuit (never built) around Ljubljana. In summer 2007 it is still active.
January 2009: it seems has been removed a section of track, but I have no evidence of this.
June 2012: the circuit was dismantled, because the military base was reactivated. Hardly the circuit will be used again
