Sure there will always be idiots like this who will still do stupid crap on public roads for the thrill and "rebel" factor, but for the rest of us we want a place to have fun safely, legally, and not get a bad reputation.

I've dreamed of building my own track here in SA if I ever came into millions...like winning the lotto. I know it's crazy thinking, but one's gotta have dreams right!
So, I'd take my millions and buy up a thousand acres or so....as much is needed for a few tracks.
First and foremost, I want a track, track...twisties, hills, drops, straight aways, etc. Like the Nurburgring? Yeah...that's what I'm talking about (but kind of on a smaller scale).
Then, it's a 1/4 mile track that'll be a little longer than normal...just for those days of stomping on it a little farther
i'd like an oval track, but this wouldn't be too important on my priority list.
Track would be open Wed-Sun....maybe 5pm to midnight. We'd have monthly memberships, competitions w/ prizes (like free racing, open track day for you and a guest (in the am when no one else is there and you can race over and over, etc), car shows, etc, etc, etc.... I'd build my house out there on the property back in the back. It would have a race shop, fuel shop, concessions, THE WORKS!!!
Really....I've given it thought. It would bring in countless people...and I'm not talking some rinky dink track either....people would come from 200 miles out to race for a weekend type of deal.
You want to get rid of stupid like the video? Take their cars and their licenses. Driving is a privilege...not a RIGHT. Don't want to get in trouble? Take it to the track where EMS is staged in case something goes wrong.
Dreams...
