Hey all, I've been reading the message board on the Drag City web site. They seem to post up excuse after excuse as to why they still haven't broken ground on the strip. I just wondered if anybody knew any real reasons why they haven't done anything

government conspiracy

drugs and woman

Their first problem was to create the web site then get everyone all warm and fuzzy. They have had alot of red tape to go through but they may be closer. I was talking with a tech director at Pomona this weekend and he told me they should begin in June and be ready by October. We'll see, this has been going on for years starting back at Rialto. There are alot of rumors that follow the two primary guys trying to do this, lets just say they have tried before in the past and have failed due to lack of money,THEIRS, so we will see. They keep getting more "sponsors" for the track, so the money may finally be there. They had tried to sell memberships at first but I dont think it went over too well.

Thanks LS4_454, I went to a couple of the "Airport Drags" that they had in Banning and that's where I first heard about it. But after the last Night of Fire they said the next races were going to be at the new strip they were building. Since then it's been all talk and excuses, so I just wondered.

Did you race? I had my '70 Caprice at both, big, green, and running a 454. Just a street car, not a "race" car.
