Item #23 on the map is the Tram Station, they'll shuttle any overflow parking from the circle track parking! Kind like what they do from across the street at the Fairplex in Pomona, or the upper level parking at Infineon.

Nice renderings. Does it really intend to have that many suites?

MOPAR DRAG CITY in Banning sure did....

File this one in the "I'll believe it when I see it open" file for me. It is in California afterall....

Ok Mark. Remember, there have been SEVERAL attempts at building facilities like this in the past in Cali...and having closed down 5 tracks MYSELF, I'd love to see this actually happen. But history, the Republik of California and the economy is NOT on your guys side. I hope I'm wrong about this....but, i'll wait to see the opening race before I get too excited. And if it does open, I'll head out there and race at the event.

Just as much as they will at Bakersfield, Tulare's just down Highway 99 about 30 minutes. I just found this rending of the outside of the new drag strip featuring Nostalgia Front engine dragsters sitting in front of a building with a huge NHRA logo painted on the roof, at web page link

Where is Tulare???

Just south of Salinas where Bobby McGee slipped away.

 

[Tim5636sc]

...like I said.. Call me July 4th, 2011. If it's open, i'll be there. If not.......it'll be just another failed Kalifornia growth project.

 

[Bill]

Fergit Bobby McGee... what about Billy Joe McCalister??????????

 

[The Little Lizard]

Wrong side of the country Bill, and Jay Bobby slipped away to reside in one of the new track side condo's!

 

[Marchboom]

As much as I would like to see another track built (anywhere), Calif is not the place I would build one. It is probably the most anti-business state and the taxes, permit fees, work comp fees, haz mat fees, etc, etc. are what drive most businesses out of Calif. Throw in the economy and the fact that some folks are cutting back on going to the drags (as spectators and racers) and I just don't see this as a good time (and place) to build.

But, Calif's corrupt liberal politicians will try to shake down the track owners for anything they can. If they come up with the money then they get their track.

 

[The Little Lizard]

Nope!, not in this case. All the paperwork is done, enviromental impact done or waived, no residual court cases, its all approved, which they just finished off a couple weeks ago. All they have to do is finish a little of the financing which they can do now that everything is cleared, put the shovel in the dirt, and to boot they all ready have stimulus money in the bank for infrastruture with a green light to proceed on that portion of the project. Their already gearing up to hire around 1,000 folks, if one desires you can go to the web site let them know your interested and drop them a resume.
