  1. Since Mojave was a little short, I've been checking into the 2nd longest runway in the US at 15,500 feet. :eusa_think: :icon_mrgreen:

     

    A few months back we flew a small plane onto the runway for recon and to meet up with the runway operators. Approx 1.5-2hr drive from LA. For this facility, lots of issues involved with this type of event.

    That does look great!

     

  2. Why is it always only ONE mile. Don't most cars need a little more for a top speed run?? If you have a freeway why not 5 miles for the top speed stuff?

     

    Its not easy to find 2-3 miles of good road to shut down. Want to keep it safe and have plenty of shut down. Dont really want cars running wot at 200mph for too long either. I think a mile is plenty to see who is faster. if it takes longer then a mile to pass the other car in 99% of all races you would lose. Come on guys give me your thoughts on who would attend and what you would bring out.

     

  3. I wil chime in although its not in Cali. I am working on closing several miles of straight, flat road to put together a heads up race here in NM. I am trying to get a feel for how money people would come out etc. I have spoken with the state, traffic control etc. It seems very realistic. How many of you guys would come to NM to go heads up? We will have it set up nice with food etc. Working on the traffic plan etc this week. It would be a one mile heads up or if you didnt want to race and just want to run flat out for a mile we can do single runs as well. We would have beams set up for the start and end. Will also try and have 3 camera angles set up for start, middle and end. Any ideas or info would be great. This is a list of local cars so far.

     

    1. Single turbo noble m400 making well over 600whp

    2. whipple fgt 750whp

    3. mosler mt 900 making 600hp or so (ls7)

    4. C6 Plastic mess-06 making 570-600whp

    5. 997 tt evt 700

    6. Super snake shelby

    7. Viper acr (unknown mods)

    8. Gt 500 sc/tt making 1000whp

    9. fgt whipple (4l whipple)

    10. Viper tt (1200whp)

    11. 599 f car (maybe)

  4. I am sure most of the business owners on this site will know this right away. A friend of mine wanted to buy or lease a lambo and use it for work. He is a doctor and runs and owns a medical practice. His cpa said there is no way to write it off? I thought if the company bought/leased the item in question and it was used for busniess it was able to be written off. Any tax codes or info would be great guys. Thanks
