I found something today. Great news if true. Recenty I did some bad things like speeding and and just being dumb. and had to do some hard work for the city. As I was about to go home. I started talking to 2 of the city worker guys. after a while of speaking to them. They told me of a new project that they would start work on in like 6 months. a road but not for everyday driving but for racing. All they told me is it's to be about 3/4 mile long road in a line. and it's to be in Hampton in what is now woods near Betal park. I still have many questions. Does anyone know about this. i never hear of this till then. but if this right that's only like 10 or 15 mins away from me and that 's great news.

And no it is not the parkway a real racing strip

 

yeah, its the road that is across from amc 24. it cuts through hampton to newport news at harpersville, near peninsula catholic high school. i thought that spot was already hot, whenever i've driver on it to go to my friends house i've always seen a cop on it.

 

eh..... sounds to good to be true

 

that would be hampton roads center parkway, its opend up now and gaining traffic but back when they started building it that was a good place to race until the people in the houses started whining every time and cops started coming.

 

Um, ok, if he just heard this, and they start work on it in 6 months. Do you think you'd be driving on it already?

All I'm saying is, if it's true, it could be something positive. Something to keep street racers out of the police problem book?

 

i doubt they would put a drag strip in the middle of hampton anyways, but i heard langley was getting a 1/4 mile strip, dont know if its true though.

 

i wonder how much it would cost to get a couple of us together to pave our own street........gettin land, asphalt, and all that shit.....anyone got a clue? it could be possible if we all get together and work something out. just a suggestion

 

that doesnt sound right. they would have to get lisences and legalize racing on some road made for us. i doubt it would happen. they would be responible for all the accidents and it would cuz great legal issues....... what ever i just said.

 

gat dammit! .........hm....well. correct me if i'm wrong, but private property laws are those that give us rights to do whatever we want on our own shit? and maybe like the people that do race, make sure they got insurance n shit like that before we let em go off and burn tires....you make good points hombre. there has got to be some way though.meh...i'll keep brainstorming

 

you to also have a good point. but i know if the city builds it then we have no chance. but i dont if we bring this issue to the city council theyll prolly laugh at us unless we have SPONSERS. then i bet we have a really good chance. but it would have to be a HUGE place. just image all those damn peeps that would be out there. my god you would have to have an appointment just to get out on the line. all the muscle cars would would prolly cram the place. so we would have to get prolly more than one place.
