Their goal has been to keep it within 45 minutes of the cities. They were looking around Faribault, but that got shot down last Dec. Hopefully this new place will be good.

Re: Dragways
So... did these guys just disappear? The site doesn't work anymore. I guess I quit following it awhile back. Anyone know what happened?

Re: Dragways
There are plenty of local drag strips. That's why they invented the interstate!

Not sure, but on the subject someone just bought BIR. Maybe the same group?

Re: Dragways
It's the guys that were trying to start Pine Run, Jed Copham I believe is his name. They tried 2 different spots and neither went thru. So they bought BIR and there will be some track improvements over the coming years. Such that there can be 2 or more events held at the same time. This is a good idea because it will drop some of the insurance costs for the organizers, thus dropping entry fees.
