      just if i was cleetus id let the days and weeks run by and see if any consistencies come out, by releasing these he'll either back them off or people might think hes a good target.
      this could just be over reacting but if it comes down to my property and money id make sure its not going to keep happening.

      And a security system, it looks like a handful of well placed cameras (like one set to catch plates of cars leaving) would do wonders, also for a temporary fix buy some of those dollar store, battery powered, door alarms with the magnet sensors. They scream loud as FK any time anyone opens a door. It will help, also the entrance, I'm guessing there is only 1 or 2 ways to get a car into there, take a couple of those old trucks and block off the entrance when your not there. If some kids wanted to rob y'all, they cant get a truck into the area so they would have to load it up all while leaving the truck out where people could see it.

I can speak for other locals, the community appreciates your passion for re-inventing this amazing property. Looking forward to coming to a future event and watching your progress and growth. Thank you for these behind the scenes tours, you brought back so many memories. Legendary auto salesmen Tom Stimus (Wrestler Dusty Rhodes in the commercials) once bought and owned this track and made it an amazing showplace in the 80's. I remember meeting Al Unser Sr here and watching World of Outlaws, Sprint Cars, Figure Eights, smashing up derby and locals race what you brought. Really exciting and would be good to bring that back in someway to keep the track active once again. Best Wishes!

Create a financial budget to fix this place, and stick to it. Otherwise this could easily bankrupt you. It’s so vast, and there’s so much to fix, that it could be a financial black hole. Stick to the basics, think long term, and stick to your budget.

      @normchampine472 4 года назад +3

      Yes I agree to use the back side aluminum stands to make a complete "main stands" and then fix the backside stands as money permits. I think the drivers family's will understand when their asked to just use the main stands along with regular patrons and maybe even have a small section for drivers family. Ok but either way make the main grandstands as complete as possible with what you have on hand using the back stands and close them for construction while you've used the parts from the back to complete the main stands.

    • @sireuchre
      @sireuchre 4 года назад +1

      People could sponsor new stands for the back stretch. Also, another option for replacing the wood temporarily is recycled plastic boards - they don't rot from rain. They will break down over time in the sun, but that isn't the kind of cascading failure issue that wood presents, once it starts to rot.

    Just a word of advice when you get to the spraying weeds I would avoid "traditional" roundup or similar products. They will generally be about 41% glyphosate. They will kill the vegetation, but the effects don't last very long.
    You will want a soil sterilizer for the pavement. Those work for up to a year. Also when you spray you can get a dye that you mix in with the sprayers to see where you have and haven't sprayed. Be sure all people applying chemicals use extreme caution and use appropriate PPE. Rubber boots, rubber gloves, long pants, long sleeves, and possibly a mask. Seriously read the labels.

Everything from car shows, burn outs, drifting, kart racing, circle tracks, Rally racing ( which can be set up and fixed up in their fields and repaired back ) Street car racing ( If they pave the entire middle of the track this will allow for a much larger area and cones are used for this kind of racing ( which is done on parking lots most times ) Other events that I have not thought of, This place could be busy every Friday and Saturday for events. The stands are about 5k people with a 20 dollar event ticket at the low end brings in 100k per weekend or about 5.2 million a year, With the average fan spending 20 dollars on food or merch. This is a total of 10 million for the year. The larger the spread of events brings in your current fans and new fans, Every ticket sold should have a link to youtube and other social media and along with what ever the event that is going on social media. There is some money to be made, With the diverse area they need to expand greatly in order to keep it open.
      Having an area with a few large shops that can be open for pubic business from Monday to Thursday for dyno testing, Car repair, custom work can greatly increase the income.

      I was hoping I would see someone closer than myself to offer this! I live in Indiana but would be so willing to grab a trimmer and blower and take care of all the overgrowth there in the common areas. It will look so much nicer once it's cleaned up.

Being that he owns some of the equipment and a smart move would not to buy direct ( equipment/contracts )from either of the brands he can have both.

    Another idea for you guys - use some of the extra space left over for RC racing! You'll bring in so many more people and youre keeping the original idea alive of the racetrack! Just need a dedicated area that isnt too big with small dirt hills to make a track out of (use the dirt left from the burnout pad) , build a racers tower, and BAM, you got more people coming!

      You should have a "friends car" "burn" to a crisp on the track and then act "sad" so you can collect fraudulent "charity" money. Ask Adam Lz, it's worth 10 grand. That's burnout pad money boiiii

    Hell yeah brother!
    Trust me when I tell you..... That place is a diamond in the rough and a great location next to the other track. I'm a little older than you but I love to see young dudes making moves like that$$$$. Put every dollar you can scrape together into that place. It'll be rough in the beginning but you'll be debt-free very very soon.
    I can only imagine this is mostly going to be a cash intake business. Be very very careful who you have around all that cash. I was friends with the past owner at the drag strip where I live and it was a dump and we would still have to count up 20 to $40,000 every weekend in $20 bills. it was only me and him and his motor home counting that money because he couldn't trust anyone else. Be careful brother good luck and congratulations.
    Do it for Dale!
