    The IRL race is a street track and centered on the Alamodome/downtown area. And it is FAR from being a done deal.
    No, its pretty much a done deal. With an official announcement within the next 5-6 months.

    why do you contradict yourself buddy

    first you say that its going to be held in 2007. now its pretty much a done deal.

    being set in stone which you insuinate in a couple posts above is not the same as pretty much being done as its not exactly official at that point.

    damn you are confusing in your world.

    Yes, it's pretty much a done deal for a 2007 start date.

    Where is the contradiction?

    Phase 1 is talking about a big project publicly prior to putting the properties under contract, thus driving up acquisition costs.
    Exactly. Not to mention the stray owners who don't want to sell the house they've lived in for the past 50 years or whatever raising a fuss and getting extensive media coverage.

    Phase two is getting an earful from metro alliance and COPS about living wages.
    No doubt.

    Phase three is listening to posturing bull from the city council.

    anybody want to take a shot at phase four?
    Threatening to end the project in order to hold those other parties in check or just terminating the project altogether.

    Wrong

    It has the same "minor" problem that killed the last IRL race here.

    No Sponsor

    No Sponsor, No Race

    I'm going to sit back, ignore this thread and keep quiet about the negotiations that Holly Hills is currently in the middle of until everything is confirmed.

    Feel free to call me out every second of the day but don't expect me to reply.

    Good day all.

    The Grand Prix race with the IRL.

    It was announced last week that it would be held in 2007.

    That was phase I, to get the gand prix race.

    Phase II is complex which is currently going very smoothly.
    Phase II would consist of HollyHills getting the county to go along with the plan and to use eminent domain to run a number of working class homeowners out of their homes as well as a number of business to relocate and/or cease to operate. Phase II would also consist of getting a ballot measure passed to allow it to pay for whatever stadia are to be built with some permutation of a revenue bond.

    That does not happen "smoothly". That does not happen over the course of 5 months.

    The county? It's city land.

    Funny. He's gone from reading the SA Business Journal to being smack dab in the middle of the action.

    How convenient.

    A significant number of those properties have private ownership. HollyHills was supposedly working with the county on the plan for the complex. It's going to need some local en y to use in order to force those property owners to sell.

    The San Antonio Business Journal is a notoriously inaccurate piece of newspaper. They do NO critical journalism and are basically an infomercial for promoters like these Holly Hills scam artists. I made it a policy about 8 years ago that any existing customer of mine that was "featured" in the SA business journal immediately got put on COD.

    I've been too busy with the 3 highrise condo projects announced this week to read this thread...

    Still hasn't gotten old.
