    this is why people street race right here^

    if you dont give people an option to do what they love legally they will do it illegally. the closest track to me are commerce and SDR which both takes about the same amount of time(because of traffic headed to commerce) and it really sucks to have to drive 2 hours to go race. these people piss me the fuck off.

    Exactly. I don't do the organized street racing thing, but we need more tracks. I haven't been to one since Dallas drag strip closed.

    I love how they said it would displace wildlife, and the come back was so does building a house but you don't bitch about those.

    You should go and say something, Chad. Whenever they have the next meeting. I'm sure they would rather have their children at a safe place racing, instead of them doing it on the streets. But then again, I bet the ones bitching, don't have kids. So, they don't see the reasons a strip should be built.

    i dont street race anymore either and because i dont i only get to race once every month-2 months cause the track is such a far distance away. 2 hours to SDR or 2 hours to commerce. if this track was built i would be there every weekend, racing or sitting in the stands with a 12 pack.

    the only issue with that is, i dont vote those people into office that make the choice to built the track or not, i dont live in that county. thats the problem here, they got 50+ people that reside in that county bitching about a drag ship that would be built miles away from any houses that reside in that county and are the ones that vote on who stays or leaves their position there.

    If it happens will it be a 1/4 mile or 1/8 mile track? I would happily support this, the more tracks the better.

    yep they said they were going to do fri night drag to brag BULLSHIT for 1 summer to test the waters and if it went over will they were going to build a 1/4 mile track, 3-4 years later they are still charging $20 to race 1/8 mile with no tree, ET or MPG times.

    AMS are scammers.

    dude you got to think of all those cars racing at $20/car then each person in the stands(which is PACKED everytime) at $7/person. they are making mad money there and were supposed to build a REAL track but im sure they are thinking...why? they make this much money having people get flagged down pit lane to race to some orange cones

    Co-signing this comment. There really should be a few more tracks around. I do agree on that.

    100%, Tiger, dude. The strip is slated to be a 1/8 mile strip with grandstands and a motocross track and a few other things. And yes on the more tracks, as I agreed with above. Later, QD.

    Lolol. Well a 1/4 mile track would be a much better track for the import cars, but something HAS to be better than nothing, yes? Later, QD.

    i agree 100%....if the track was new and nice and they really prepped it unlike that bullshit they have out in eatonington(or whatever) then i would go there instead of taking a 2 hr trip to silver dollar even if it was 1/8 mile.

    More tracks would be nice if I had something worth taking <15sec down the 1/4 mile.

    I was referring to the "new" track and i guess it was Conyers. Buy QD already cleared that up. I hope it gets built. That would help take a lot of street racers off the street.

    wasnt there a track built in san diego just to help prevent street racing??? even though cali has some strict laws, atleast they want to try and help by building tracks and throwing fundraisers... oh and they aslo have beat the heat where you get to race the cops... for ga to be such a nascar/ pro racing state they sure do suck when comes to supporting the racers...

    very well said, reps for that...

    but maybe if we all raced in a circle instead of a straight line, we'd probably get more support

    EDIT: must spread reps...

    lol!! damn chad i have been watching this for a little and havent posted up about it.But i have been trying to get a location on the meeting and if they where gonna be there the 21st because i do plan on showing, me and 3-4 other ppl.I think its a shame that these fuckers would rather see u locked up in jail or some ones life gone for street racing other than allow a track to be built.as for eton,fuck that place i use to run down there back in the day and i made it a total of 2-3 times before i said it was not worth the 1 hr trip at all,and the only reason i went down there back in the day was because atlanta dyno & chas built both my quads and we use to run them down there,with (brad B)but i would never take a car there.
    I check sluts off my list like a maintnence man
    I drive a low is3 just so it gives me a reason to drive super slow on these rough ga roads.

    I raced my EF at Eatonton a couple of times, as it's 30 min from my house. Pure shit hole. I think the name is Headhunters Dragstrip.

    yeah i ran the black neon while it was big turbo there a few times cause its about 30 minutes from my house. it was interesting to say the least but not a track i would want to run at often.

    I'm not trying to blast you (because I think it would be great to have more tracks around), but that's pure bullshit. Those people that are against this track are not making people do illegal races by voting against it. It's the "street racers" choice to do it. And you know they're still going to do it even if a track were built.

    I no ppl going to street race anyway.But there are alot of kids that would go to the track like me i love to run on the street but with fines going up nd me already in trouble i feel it is def worth keeping it on the track.If it saves atleast 1 life over the next 10 yr's to me it is worth it.And i honestly think alot of ppl are going to start killing the track more after they get some of those $200 fee's tacked on to there ticket And its just a normal thing for a bunch of old folks to vote agianst something that they no alot of young will enjoy doing thats why they all can suck my cock and drink geritol.

    this site? that sucks. i would think if somebody came on here looking for support on building a track IA'ers would give support. then again this is IA and there are a bunch of douchebags here.

    the site also says that they had a meeting with some in dekalb county a year ago, and no updates since then.

    the site also says that they had a meeting with some in dekalb county a year ago, and no updates since then.
    Yeah, this site. And the negativity was legit and not just BS laughing. He didn't seem to have a plan and he certainly didn't have the money to do this. Last I saw, he supposedly had things in line with the city officials, but he didn't have any money. But according to this link you posted, he still doesn't have his ducks in a row with the officials. Later, QD.
