$20,000 and a jey tie to get it...u have to visit NDFD...its been around for years

yeah they told me all the tie lies with the lending institutions. they got lil issues with policies and all. and the delay is maddening. and NDFD told me they got issues with lending too because of delinquency with lots of small businesses.

What upsets me about things like that is that the problem is not with small businesses at all. It has more to do with Mr. X is my friend so I'll give him money even though his business plan is crappy and he has no real business sense and all his ventures usually fail. Mr. Y however has to come up with paperwork out of his $%# to satisfy certain criteria and he may still not get the money even though he has a great business plan with inventive ideas to make his program work. If I sound a bit bitter about the subject it is because I am, if you don't have a string to pull, plenty times in DA you are screwed

yep thats why man, pull string, so for that, man have to squeeze blood outta stone, hell all aint lost anyway. but it sucks man, i been to many different institutions and its just hopeless. same story everytime, a hindrance man.

Start fund raising

Organise the commitee....Assign a Manager, give everyone their roles within the organization, or Hire a manager. Determine how many shares the company has so people can buy in. Helps reduce confusion later on

ok well step 1 is fund raising.
what we got in the pipeline?

ok well step 1 is fund raising.
what we got in the pipeline?

I think deciding how much money is needed should come before fund raising

[skidmarx]

irie scene so, we gotta get on with the potential areas and the facility and then make a costing on it. where DGLOBE?

[DGLOBE69]

aiight the first step is knowing our estimated targets,

please be advise the following are estimtes EC$,

"iam not familiar with the pricing in d/ca"

in level of importance top to buttom

iam not sure what the price of land is per sqf? d/ca?
120 acres-5,227,200. sqft. 200 acres-8,712,000. sqft

1) land 120/200 acres? -land clearing 50k
200 acres (1/2 track) /120 acres (1/4 track)- out of which the track is cleared along with sufficient space for building structures the entire area will not be cleared at once.( future plans)


2) track structure 100k/above
the primary foundation for this structure therefore it has to be strong, tarish, asphalt, for security purposes 20ft wide track(196591.99 square ft.) entire track onlly


3) track equipment 40k
1/4 mile lighting, gps, timing system, camera system( opt),

4) stands to accomodate 600 pple start 10k

5) gas station 50k (10 x 10)
2 pumps 1)diesel 2) gasoline /93 included if possible)

6) building strucuture 65k (office/towerstand/hall)
(40 x 20) strucutre base will accomodate meetings/ jams,ect . office 1floor 10x10, top of office bird eyeview tower (annoucers),

7) booths 6k
each booth 10 x10 rented out, inline with each other to reduce cost.

8) garage 25k
20 x 20 provide assistance to any person in need of mechanical services, ( with tools) this garage could be rented out.


be advise by #1-3 the track can be operational at least for 6 months then complete the additional improvements

ammmmm, just an observation, this sounds like a big under taking. Who will this race track be catering to? How many events going to be held? What different race classes are there? How many participants/how often will they participate? IMHO it would be easy enough to have something manageable at first. Antigua has 7-8sec cars, their track is basic strip, Lucia Kaka-beff, the old strip their ahead(Grenada, Trini, Guadeloupe, martinique and bados, They're way ahead). Yet they all started with something basic.
It would be more feasible to go small, simple drag strip then move along. Crawl before you walk

[hilliuse]

antigua is really basic...not even stands
