meh, not really to the rescue. The guy wasn't really a nuisance, he just didn't know the rules.

He received warnings about cross-posting and did it anyways.

In our eyes, that constitutes spamming.

Also, the inability to type in an even semi-professional manner makes the whole thing seem shady, especially if the point of the thread was to solicit sponsors.

His only other posts were in FS/W, so take with that as you will.

This is true. Tidewater Sports Car Club had received permission from the Suffolk airport management to use part of Suffolk airport for autocross events this year. Suffolk city council shot us down with the excuse that they didn't want to resurrect memories of the 'black eye' that the old drag strip from the 70's left there. Whatever...

Wow jackhole^^^

I you took about 5 seconds and searched this site, you would have found that people want a facility like what yo speak of...... but the citys do not. You cant just buy a bunch of land and build a track. The city would have to authorize the land usage, along with a shit ton of EPA enviromental imact studies will have to be done, long before the first bit of track is laid. If you have access to any backing, financal or other wise, there is a track being built in New Kent County ( http://www.dragonsridge.com/Index.asp ) that from what I hear has hit a funding wall and could use a few million if you have it just laying around. And the fact that the Dragons Ridge project is having problems will not bode well of any other track. Also the fact that Dragons Ridge is in the process of being built, when completed it would have a huge impact on the possible profits of a third track in the state of VA. This would not help in the solisitation of financial backing.

So best of luck with your project but it will not happen in the Tidewater Area ever, and if Dragons Ridge finalizes its funding; anywhere else in VA for that matter. Its simple supply and demand.

You're kidding me, right?

As the prior poster stated, even the slightest bit of searching would have shown you that the idea of building of track has been tossed around on this site since the beginning, and much longer prior to that. And it's already been shown that more than enough people can front the money or resources, and that the problem stems from bureaucratic red tape.

You're nothing more than another loudmouth with pipedreams who refuses to do any research into the logistics it would take to do anything.

Here's a thought: forward this thread to Battleground Engineering. Show to them that their decision to "leave the financing" up to you is one of sheer brilliance.

You're right. We don't have faith. We don't have faith in someone who thinks they can come on here, spam the same thread in multiple forums (despite a warning stating to not do so), types in all caps while simultaneously misspelling every fifth word, and still manages to be completely incoherent. You have no actual business plan other than the oh-so-useful "this track is for all of us".

You're not "tryin to to make something happen (sic)", you're making yourself look like an idiot.

Why don't you just let Battleground Engineering come on here and speak for themselves? The last thing they need is an incoherent dolt with zero business skills representing them.

And by dolt, I mean you, dustin4841, because you seem the type who needs things explained to them.

In fact, I'd go as far as saying any business that decides to take you on as their mouthpiece is doomed to failure.
