Well let me start off by saying thanks to the people that have had helpful comments.

But I started this thread to find out more about what it takes to run a drag strip. Yes everyone knows large straight flat land, concreate and alot of money. I'm looking for info. like what kind of software do tracks use to keep up with time or what kind of glue is used to prep the track. I dont want to have to sort through a load of crap about you dont have that kind of money and this thread is a joke or stupid. If you dont like it dont read it or comment. And yes I understand to most of you I'm some 22 year old kid. But dont pretend to know what I do for a living and what I can I can not afford. I dont think that you are my accountant now are you.

I understand this is going to take alot of money. That is why I said I was toying with the idea and would take several years of planning. I'm not pretending that I'm just going to build a track overnight. I have alot I have to figure out before I make that kind of investment. Because this is something that would require a lot of my time and to someone that already works 7 days a week and any where from 16-18 hours a day time is hard to comeby. So again I have to figure all that stuff out. But this thread is for suggestions on things I could be leaving out or suggestions on what addons a drag strip needs to make it better and more functional.
