Call "Zmax" Raceway, ask for Bruton Smith, he has a lot of pull in Charlotte, NC. The city fathers of Charlotte told him he couldn't build his dragstrip adjacent to the circle track (which he owns) due to noise and pollution restrictions; he told them he would shut down the NASCAR track and the proposed museum, and move it to another state if that's what they preferred...they acquiesced.
