oh ok then, but last time i saw street racing in sri lanka there were more than 15 cars , i thought if this was to do properly there will be more cars involved and people will happy to come and race ,,,,,,,,,,,

so are there any drag strips in those places? do they actualy give u a timing sliip with your highest speed, 1/4 mile time and your reaction time ? i thought those places were tracks not a drag strip

Thank you very much for all your concerns and advises, there really helpful for my project, I have to get permission from those places mentioned and going to be a B.O.I project too, but depending on few things this might end up as a private business, With the land wise I’m still looking for more lands as I’m planning on lease the land not to buy it out right, currently there are couple of bare lands in bopitiya, uswatakeiyawa area but there more likely to be soil, mud etc, so it’ll need to be filled and get it up to the standards, so I m still interested in looking more lands, Im gonna need to be touch with the politics .but if there’s some one who can help with this out there it’s really great, Once the permissions granted and after finding the land we re planning on approaching for the sponsors, and marketing the business Planning on a restaurant and area where other supporting business to be market there products, To get it done correctly and to let the people enjoy this facility there will be a charge, Planning on Rs 150 from spectators Rs 300 for 2 runs on the strip Rs 1500 for 3 hours on the strip, 10-12 runs and 2 free entrance for friends or crew Rs 2500 for a full day unlimited runs and 2 free entrance for friends or crew Like I have mentioned early posts, every racer will be given a printout of the timing etc, and a ambulance, recovery vehicle and a fire fighters will be there all the time If I can get the permission, planning on doing some night racing at least till mid night It will be a separate charge for night racing Special discounted prices for car clubs providing certain number of cars etc, Planning on doing car shows, etc And I m hoping on at least 100-130 cars per full weekend, And run the drag strip all year around, except rainy days,,,, Planning on 15 part time employees and 5 full time employees to start with then to increase, What you guy’s think about these??? Let me know Thanks Gihan J
