Don't get too wound up. They have signed land agreements before, getting it approved by the public is the hard part. Most people don't want a drag strip in their back yard.

I wouldn't mind having it in my backyard!! If only I owned 100 acres...

That place has been making promises for years....I'll believe it once ground-breaking begins.

I agree. I want a new drag strip as much as the next guy, but I've been hearing these "good news" posts for the last five years. When I see some concrete being layed, then I'll get excited.

Yep. Nothing really comes from these guys.

where were some of the locations they were thinking of putting the strip??

Close to the twin cities as in St Cloud, or close as in Plymouth?

last i heard, Albertville.

That would be pretty sweet, half hour to 45 minute drive would be a helluva lot better than RF or BIR...

yeah, but i'm sure it'll never happen

we can dream can't we reid??

When we get our skylines, we will go around winning money from illegal street races and build our own race track!!!

It'll never happen. MN is too liberal to allow such a thing so close to the Cities. We used to have it in Brooklyn Park....

Used to have what?? Was there a strip in BP back in the day or something?

*Updated*

Yup...not too far from where Fleet Farm now stands. I believe it was called Northstar Dragway or something to that effect.
