this is a very good idea as well.anyone know _crs personally he could possibly help out with organizing that.i love how this is picking up some steam,if the money issues r taken care of then this is very doable despite what spic says or thinks.the mudbogging thing is also a very good idea considering the location and the surrounding residents.plenty of good ol boys that would love to get their trucks dirty.it also possibly brings in new sponsership oppurtunities.(pro trucks,production off road,pungo off road among others...)

i check autoX.us tomorrow.

I need to hear from sponsors people.

ideas are fine- but we all know money talks.

I need an honest quote for 2.8 Miles of track. and 2500 feet is plenty for a 1/4 mile drag strip.

What can everyone actually contribute????

dumb question I'm sure, but unless there are huge holes everywhere why bother repaving anything other than the 1/4 track?

it would be a lot more likely to happen if you tried to start this as a 1/4 track and then expanded with a road track later, once the initial cost has been recovered ($200k investement instead of $500k)

sounds like a plausable idea...lots of things to do of course..just a stoopid idea but there is like 12,000 members on dragva...if only 500 members donated 83.33 bucks a month for a year that would supply 500,000 which would cover the whole concrete situation...but i really doubt anyone would even do that

that is an idea


maybe someone should try talking to Sung about opening back the 757ontrack site.. have a paypal account to it..

if we show companies/sponsors there is activity and we are doing something other then beggin/asking for money, they might be more willing to contribute..
