What they really need on the Island is a drag strip, like they used to have out east in the Hamptons (sp). There was an article in today's Wall Street Journal on electric hot rods, and how guys are building their own from old gas clunkers. The article referenced a town on the west coast I think where they permenantly closed down an underused public street so folks can take their street cars down and challenge one another to 1/4 mile races.

How come we can't get something like that going here on the Island? I haven't heard anything on that Yaphank track they were trying to push through. Anyone have an update?
