Articles keep popping up online about the building of a 330ft drag strip south of Los Angeles with 670ft shut down. No prep street legal (full size) cars and motorcycles only. Purpose is to offer street racers a place to safely race. Gee, sounds like NHRA, circa mid-1950s, all over again.

Street Legal Dragway
Anyway, got me to thinking about adapting it to RC in front of my house. At 1/10 scale be 33ft with 67ft shut down. Easily doable-almost anywhere.
Actually, paced off that distance in my back yard doing a shake down of the Senton 2WD not long ago. Not a course validation. For that, will need to put down some runs out front on concrete first. Gonna give a try just for grins. Cheers. 'AC'
