You remember LACR? Well, there is a movement to build a new track up here in Lancaster in the very near future. If you can make this meeting, please do.

Here's the message I just received.

Hey Gang,
Moldy Here!

Things are finely moving along in a very positive way for a new track in the Antelope Valley!

There will be a very important meeting and support mixer held at the Antelope Valley Credit Union on Friday April 9, 2010 at 7:00pm.

We need as many of you as possible to show up, to include, racing clubs, organizations along with the L.A.C.R. staff and crew!

We will be discussing the New Track to include a Legal Street Race that is also in the planning stages!

The site will be going through several changes throughout the next few weeks.

This is a great idea but we need a track in Los Angeles as well. I thought there were plans to build a track in Long Beach as well in the future.

 

[ccfeyh]

I would expect getting one built in Long Beach would be a major issue. Most people down there don't want the noise and with the property values down there seems it would be a hard sell.

But getting one built up here is a much easier process and would provide the best chance of getting a new trach built in Los Angeles county. So if anyone out there would like to see this happen, you might think about coming to the meeting on Friday to show support for the effort.

I'll do what I can to support this effort. We need to get people to race at the track instead of the streets. Lancaster ranges from 2100ft to 4000 ft in elevation. This proposed track falls at what elevation? Is the starting line going to be heated? Whats the prices going to be like to race?

 

[ccfeyh]

There isn't a spot in Lancaster at 4000 feet or even close to it. The average is about 2100'.

No one knows the rest of the answers, that what all the meetings are about. I do know they are talking a complete racing complex. It will probably be located in the northwest section of town.
