one more thing, if the land we want to use is government owned, then i think there would be an advantage for us.

Well I think that you all have a handle on the situation. Just like the movie Fields of Dreams, " If you build it. They will Come "
This is true for both racers and fans alike. We pay $200.00 TTD ( not a whole lot by comparison to ECD ) to race, and it doesn't go a long way. The registrering and management infrastructure to govern the industry is IMPERATIVE for growth. The other islands have learnt this valuable lesson at too great a price. NO TRACK TO RACE ON IN TRIN-

BAGO!!!
What ever you do, try to learn from the experienced ones so tht you DON'T make the same mistakes that they did.
Racing can grow in Dominica with the right PEOPLE / CREW behind it.

yes this is reaching somewhere im very glad. As we know dominica is a very small island so we need to pool together all our resources and support. We can not afford any division amongst the enthusiasts because, before you know eveybody will want to be doing their own thing and it just wont work. This needs to be a collective effort.
