Is LVMS destined to be the "ONLY" venue hosting Divisional and National events? The CA strips seem to be constantly targeted for "Imminent Domain" progress.

Move to TN there are 11 dragstrips within 5 hours or less from Our home

Move to Vegas. 4 races in your backyard. Pomona and Bakersfield are 4 1/2 hours away. Phoenix for now is 5. No state tax and no rain. Be careful of the buffets that never end.

Look here !

I think that most of us living in or near Phoenix knew this was coming. The community is building around the drag strip. I've heard comments like "the casino makes more money in 2 days than the drag strip makes all year". Lots of room to build a new drag strip but the problem is making it a good investment for someone.

I LOVE this site. You guys are great!

I couldn't knock the rust off my old UBB skills to do multiple quotes in this post, so I'll just respond to y'all like this...because HEY!, we've got time, right?

Don, TN is an awesome state, our Gov. will likely receive an honorable mention for a realtor award in TN

Paul, I really like Las Vegas for those reasons, but my wife is like a candle..she melts in the heat, I guess I could hook up a solar-powered AC unit for an arctic setting still concerned about the Division schedule past '23 though.

Billy, all good here, I'm RED til I'm dead..pragmatically of course.

J.Heath, I'm totally intrigued by the ACTING position. Got me wonderin what's the requirements.

and Mark, when is it best to call you? I have a feeling we may have actually talked before about an Olds Omega.

I'm too crazy and love S/SS too much to fold or give up and I reeeeeeally don't want to delete my Signature.

I wonder if Graham Light is the only one amongst them who has even driven a race car or worked at a dragstrip?

I guess reactivating Speedworld isn't an option? I saw a video from within the past year or so that shows it all overgrown.

If it's utilized and advertised properly I don't see how it shouldn't be, especially in Arizona where you don't have to worry about 10 rainouts per year like other areas of the country. It seems as if the owners of certain tracks care more about its value to prospective buyers than its success as a venue. If more die-hard racers owned tracks it might be different?

Of course it would IF "more die-hard racers owned tracks"!
