I can't really say that sounds unreasonable. do we really need drag strips within the city limits? by definition, the participants have cars.
no kid is going to drive an hour+ and pay $100 fee to go race they will set up on some street that's closer and free. also, the street races gather huge crowds of other younger people (girls) so nobody wants to go pay to race where none of their friends are watching.
Arguably we should set up drag strips (formal, or perhaps impromptu where feasible to do safely) in easy to reach locations, charge nothing for entry, and often.
that's what the NHRA did in 1951, we've come full circle...
But also, by definition, anything other than the basic stock car is illegal to street in California.
dang, so literally any tune or other aftermarket mods are not street legal in CA? another reason not to move to SV I guess.
Why would anyone want their family's sleep to be disturbed?
Why should a family be allowed to buy a recently built house by a motor racing track and then get the track closed down? That is essentially what has happened...
I assumed the person I was responding to was referring to building race tracks where the noise could affect others.
