City won't let us open a track
We now have a sponsor that is willing to put 400K in a airstrip that USED to be open for the Airforce(NO planes have landed there in years) and the city owns it. He talked with the NHRA and got them stoked about the idea to have an ENNIS-size facility in this region in the Texas Panhandle. Problem is this- the F---k'n mayor and the manager of REESE Technology center in Lubbock, Tx will not let it happen. The sponsor approached them with a preliminary business model that could generate several million dollars anually, new jobs, a local boom for hotels, restaraunts, businesses- and they shot it down. This could be a Premier facility for a 3 state region for racers. Look at this place on google maps and you'll see what I mean-perfect place for a 1/4 track- and we have $ to make it happen. What a bunch of IDIOTS! Somebody send these guys Emails!
