JUST THINKIING. SO SACRAMENTO IS THE CAPITAL OF ONE OF THE LARGEST ECONOMYS OF THE USA, HAS A GREAT HISTORY OF CLASSIC CARS AND TRUCKS, OLD SPEED SHOPS AND BODY SHOPS, LARGE "CRUISES" DOWNTOWN BACK IN THE DAY....... BUT A GLARING SHORTAGE OF RACE TRACKS ! WE DO HAVE ROSEVILE AND THE 1/4 MILE ASPHALT OVAL TRACK.. BUT THATS IT !
NO DRAG STRIP, NO MOTORCYCLE TRACK, NO AUTOCROSS EVENTS AT CAL EXPO LIKE BACK YEARS AGO,,,, BY THE WAY,,, I WON MY CLASS CHAMPIONSHIP IN 1972 WITH MY ALPHA ROMEO GUILA SPYDER !!!
I GUESS THAT TODAY, HOUSING PROJECTS HAVE TAKEN OVER THE AVAILABLE LAND AND PUSHED OUT OUR WONDERFUL DRAG STRIP/ MOTORCYCLE TRACK YEARS AGO.
NOT UNLIKE L.A. THAT CLOSED LIONS AND ONTARIO MOTOR SPEEDWAY ND OTHERS WHILE THE BAY AREA PUT CONDOS WHERE FREMONT RACEWAY WAS.
THANK GOODNESS FOR SOMOMA ( SEARS POINT TO US SENIORS )
MAYBE IF THERE WAS A TRACK OF SOME SORT FOR ELECTRIC, NOISE FREE CARS ................
SO,,, JUST WISHFUL THINKING AND WANTED TO SHARE !
AUBREY, THE TIRE TALK GUY !
