Advice from Race track Promoters
 

Would any race track promoters be willing to share some advice about owning, running, and operating a race track?

Doesn’t have to be drag racing, could be oval track, dirt track, karts, or etc.

Thank you,

Talk to Carl Weisinger one of the best.

Bobby Fazio had Bill Bader on his podcast, find that episode. Very informative on him running one of the most successful dragstrips in the US

No problem.

I mainly lurk on here and rarely post.

I mainly read the threads when Mom and Dad are at the races.

Chris,

I am a bit Boujie when it comes to dragstrips.

After 36 years of going to and racing at events, I have to acknowledge that Lapeer Dragway in Michigan is run Supremely well.

Ran and owned by :
William Jennings

Lapeer International Dragway

The owner had a huge advantage to start, he won 20 some million in lottery then, he bought the track as it's his passion. It is run as well or better than Norwalk.

Hands down the smoothest and longest stretch of precision ground cement surface in country. I'd bet on that, any takers?

The prep on it is world class too.

The tech of your vehicle is done at your pit site which make everyone patient and happy.

Anyhow, cheers to you and yours.
