there's talk of a circuit being built here at the drag strip, I certainly hope so - there's about 5 or 6 dirt tracks here covering cars, motorbikes and BMX, but only a pissy 1/8th mile drag strip for bitumen! I think it would really change the way a lot of people here think about cars (ie straight line speed and power orientated) and therefore less likely to have people racing up and down the streets.
Even a public burnout pad would be a good means of tackling the problem of wankers in VN's HAVING to drop skids in Autobarn carpark every friday night and then those of us sitting around talking getting the blame for it.
