Funny, that's not far from where the old local dragstrip used to be.

Sure would be nice! Hopefully this project fairs better than the other ones that never made it.

Phoenix has three of them, and a Nascar track.

Re: Drag Strip In Lino Lakes?
That is a lot of money for a new track up here. Would think it would be hard to recoup the cost without government or taxpayer backing.

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.

Re: Drag Strip In Lino Lakes?
Reading about this I see Columbus is already wining about lacking benifits. Why don't they realize that just the increased traffic will help revenue. I live in Lino Lakes and would live at that track if they built it.

Lino lakes is fighting because they columbus is basically in their yard and they don't want columbus to get all the benefits even though Lino would be basically supporting all the costs without all the inside benefits and gov't support.

Re: Drag Strip In Lino Lakes?
Just an FYI, they have a survey going on for this now. Vote and distribute to anyone you think would like to see this track come to MN.
