there already is an organization that is willing to front the bill for this.

We just need the state to give them the Zoning so they can go a head and build it.

What I don't understand why they don't use Savage as the location?


They have Elko speed way, They have the Valley Fair, they have the Canterbury,


You'd think a Race Track would be the perfect addition to all of that. And with Elko they already have the Noise/Zoning so what the hell?

It's mostly industrial in that area anyways.
ELKO Speedway is in Elko MN past Lakeville, not Savage

Shokopee has Raceway Park/Valley Fair/etc. but Raceway Park & Elko Speedway have been getting noise complaints for the last 10 years from the neighborhoods sprouting up around them. There is no way they could get zoned for a 1/4 mile track. They are fighting to keep open even though they have been there much longer than the suburbs around them.

And that piss's me off. If you don't want the noise then don't move next to someplace like Elko or Raceway park, etc.

If they were there first what gives you the right to kick them out? It's totally unfair IMO.


Now if I was living there first and someone build a track next to my house then I'd be pissed.

Savage/Shakopee !!!! Perfect location.
Hey! People LIVE in Savage fool :razz2:


Actually I wouldnt mind, but theres nowhere to put it here. It would have to be right on the river in Shakopee, probably near VF.

[Halon]

just build it right along the river. 1 less safety barrier they'd have to make!

That also pisses me off. Theres people that move near the airport and then complain about the noise and want something done. Heres an idea, you never should of moved there!

Exactly!

Then after they get the 1/4 track done. They need to convert Elko into a full out SCCA/AARRF Track like St. cloud or DCTC.

Then life would be awesome :3gears:[/quote]

What, Figure 8's aren't good enuff for ya :bounce:

[Pushit2.0]

I wonder if Flying cloud airport is open/flying all night. If not it would be good to run cars on the runway at night, but it would never happen. Or somewhere along the river would be good for a track. Minnesota dragways is the company/group starting the track right? I thought they found a spot 50min south of Minneapolis.
