New Drag Strip To Sri Lanka

[devilchild]

"THOSE WITH GOLF BALLS PLAY GOLF, THOSE WITH FOOT BALLS PLAY FOOT BALL,

THOSE WITH BASKET BALLS PLAY BASKET BALL, BUT

THOSE WHO GOT REAL BALLS GO DRAG RACING''

Hey Guy's we are in the process of getting permission and building a legal and safe drag strip in Sri Lanka,

currently we have finished the proposal and going through few adjustments, we have already contacted the authorities for the permission etc.

So basically this is half way through.

This will be located within 1 hour from Colombo,

The drag strip will be build to a F.I.A standards but following N.H.R.A. requirements for street legal, Pro stock and Pro mod cars,

using over 50 acre's of land, the build will take about 3 months,

A proper drag strip for any car or motor bike to check your performance, reacting time and your talent,

Every one who's racing will be given a print out of your each run,

Showing your ¼ mile time, speed and reacting time etc

There are many many more events such as fastest car of the month, fastest car of the year, and pro stock level, pro street level, pro mod etc etc,

So we would like to get some reply's on this topic ……

LET US KNOW WHAT U THINK,,, GOOD OR BAD ,,, WE TAKE IT ALL

Thanx

Members,

Do not know who is this person going to spend colossal amount of money for 50 acres of land and 1 hours drive from Colombo if he can do or a dream, doing a survey for before the investment. As already we have Auto Dyna in Colombo at BW's workshop. This is different to that as for my knowledge.

It's called a dyno and not a dyna! and that has got nothing to do with a dragstrip!

you should really stop commenting on threads if you have no clue about what's been discussed.

you're just making an ass out of yourself...

OP

Great news btw all the best for the project. About bloody time and hopefully this will put a stop to street racing

I being doing drag racing for the last 8 years and gained a very good knowledge of Drag racing and techniques

I'm in many European drag racing clubs and participating in drag racing events,

Drag racing is one of my hobbies. I do classic car restorations and modification too.

The project is half way through, and yea it's not cheap, well what's cheap in Sri Lanka these days?

I'm not a Messer guy's don't know if u guy's can see this, but I posted this thread last night between 3-3.30 am from London time, I don't want to rite Bull Sxxt on the forums at that time of the night ,
