But I think we should first before anything talk to who might be renting the place or maybe who owns it....HT is in charge and until they step down I don't want to waste time because because time my friend you can never get back. Money you can always make...sry if i sound negative but we need to get the DUCKS in a row
we did talk to the owner of the property or DAZ did,that specific area is butted up against homes,you tell me what will happen the first time they hear 10 1/8ths screaming down the straight,and this is not to sound neg. but i have tried looking elsewhere and for the cost compared to where we are atit would be stupid to move it a major intersection without sometype of MAJOR backing.i dont know about you but i dont know anyone willing to drop $150,000 plus to get something like this off the ground the way you are talking.
revalation has $300,000 plus tied up in two tracks,its easy to say this is what we need to do,but im trying to accomplish this with what we have and right now we have a place that might as well be rent free for what were paying and an established base now we need to build it from the ground up so we can buy the property at blackstone and shaw to build a world class facility
we tried that already,heres a list of ducks that would need to be lined up
1.property-at .38 cents a foot you do the math on how many racers we would need week in week out.
2.insurance-and not just ROAR ins. were talking about liability
3.there are houses in that area that WILL complain
thats a lot to overcome,i willing to listen to all ideas but the main thing is it comes down to someone needs to be in charge that gives a rats ass about the track and racers,right now depending of which way the wind is blowing we have someone on one day who loves it and the next day hates it.
btw-if group of you guys want to get together other then out at the track to discuss this let me know ill be glad to,right now im doing this on my own because the other person helping decided he couldnt do it anymore so right now the ball is in my court and i will be willing to listen to all ideas if you want to meet at a pizza place or somewhere else lmk tonight and we'll set it up.
