A few years back, on HotBoat I believe, there was some guy feelin' everyone out about how they felt about this stuff and if they thought it would "fly" here in SoCal. Guess it didn't pan out. Anyone else remember? I for one would like to see it make its way here.

It would go over big time here, the problem is to find a place to put a track in, it's "racing" remember not golf, this guy was ready to start it up but couldn't find a place that would allow it, between noise and all the red tape and bull$hit fees, it just puts out of reach unless you're a millionaire!. :beat The sad part is you don't need much space and it's very easy to build!:rolleyes It does look like a blast, wouldn't mind giving it a shot myself!.. :good

Now all that "red tape," BS doesn't surprise one little bit here in CA. Too bad. I think the old Skiland site here by WD and me would be a good spot for an all around complex. Only problem is that they keep building more f*ckin' housing than they can sell. Would be aced out like RIR was for the MV Mall years ago. :(

Don't remember much about Firebird. Couldn't they incorporate something out there w/o alot of expenditure for land?

Actually where all RIR was, is all housing, apartments, and condos. MV Mall is West of where the track was. MV screwed that up so bad that the MV Mall isn't even in MV. It's in Riverside.

I still think Ski Land would be perfect.

A few years back, on HotBoat I believe, there was some guy feelin' everyone out about how they felt about this stuff and if they thought it would "fly" here in SoCal. Guess it didn't pan out. Anyone else remember? I for one would like to see it make its way here.

It would go over big time here, the problem is to find a place to put a track in, it's "racing" remember not golf, this guy was ready to start it up but couldn't find a place that would allow it, between noise and all the red tape and bull$hit fees, it just puts out of reach unless you're a millionaire!. :beat The sad part is you don't need much space and it's very easy to build!:rolleyes It does look like a blast, wouldn't mind giving it a shot myself!.. :good

Ummmmm.....did I just hear correct??  :stupid  You would like to give this a try??  :stupid   Are you forgetting that it's a jet??  :stupid


Whoo Hoo Hoo....Art has finally seen the light.  :jumpie  :jumpie  :jumpie


Jets Rule....Props Drool................. :D  :laugh  :jumpie

Calm down and put the crack pipe down Dana, it's racing remember!.. :rolleyes Somebody give me a ride I sure wouldn't turn it down!.. :D

And just FYI ditch pumps :puke  :puke props RULE  :finger  :finger  :laugh

Now all that "red tape," BS doesn't surprise one little bit here in CA. Too bad. I think the old Skiland site here by WD and me would be a good spot for an all around complex. Only problem is that they keep building more f*ckin' housing than they can sell. Would be aced out like RIR was for the MV Mall years ago. :(

Don't remember much about Firebird. Couldn't they incorporate something out there w/o alot of expenditure for land?

Actually where all RIR was, is all housing, apartments, and condos. MV Mall is West of where the track was. MV screwed that up so bad that the MV Mall isn't even in MV. It's in Riverside.

I still think Ski Land would be perfect.

Not that it makes a difference, but I beg to differ on the RIR thing. I spent at least 6-10 nights a year on Day Street asleep in the car waiting to enter RIR. And if memory serves me correctly (and it doesn't often but doesn't have to here 'cause I'm there at the med. clinic on avg. of twice a week), Day Street is west of the old RIR site. RIR Gate #1 (west gate) ran right next to the cement batch plant, which is still there, the north bleachers were right next to teh 60, and Turn 9 was just inside the corner of Day and Eucalyptus Streets. Tell me I'm right or was I goin' to the wrong place all those years? :stupid  :p

And who the hell knows where Moreno Valley ends and Riverside begins?  And what the hell evber happened to Sunnymad? Shows it on Google maps but I'll be damned if I can get there from here.:confused

Well, it's the same all over when it comes to racing, Skiland would be an ideal place and was looked into, but like you said all the damn housing!.. :beat Fireturd is out that's Indian land and they're taking it back when the lease is up, they built a Casino next to it and from what I hear they want to put some resort Hotel there!. :rolleyes
