My friends made a facebook group about this. Lots of people joining. I don't think its going to go anywhere fast though based on the dumb things people do around here lol. Check it out:

There's a petition online somewhere to bring back the dragstrip that used to be down in CT, but that's not going to go anywhere. Petitions won't get it done, cash will. And I think there will still be street racing regardless.

i dunno maybe for the people with no inspection or insurence or registration no money street racing yea but i think if we all came to gether ma and ct and where ever and all pitch in it can happen moneys every thing dump it all into a certain account via paypal that someone trust worthy enough can maintain and make sure its spent for what it was all ment for.!!

Yeah there's been lots of talk about opening up a nearby strip but it never goes anywhere cause like bowtie said, all of the non car people move in and bitch.
There was also talk of turning the Worcester airport into a drag strip too but I think that's gone away also.

I guess the closest close thing we get if they do it are the 100ft drags at the roundy round tracks.

problem is tracks are not cheap..that 40k wouldnt even pay for the insurrance needed for the track..even if you convert a old air port over you still need a solid couple million just to get started..

lv is only a hr drive for me so thats not really bad at all..bradenton motorsports park was about the same for me..but sunshine drag strip was only 10 mins from me..lol

biggest problem is it takes up alot of land and then people start pushing in on it and then next thing you know you cant run cars after 10 at night and all car must have mufflers and such because start building around it..sunshine was in a industal area and still after 12 at night they would get shit for cars running..

Was not saying 40k would build a track more like 2 mil and why not every one donate 10 dollars to a drag strip build it could happen what if the land say 20 acres + say in south hadley middle of nowhere no one in sight for miles was already there just need funds to create it on the land already owned say donations wouldnt work? just a thought what do you all think?

Let me dust off my calculator.....OK, 2-million bucks divided by 10-bucks. Well, that's just a mere 200,000 donations. If you can get the other 199,999 to chip in, I'll certainly throw my ten-er into the pot. In fact, I'm feeling generous at this time of year, so I may throw in a 20....!!!!

Did you seriously just need to use a calculator for that?
