When they break ground Friday, Nov. 20, in Hurricane, Utah's Quail Creek Industrial Park for the Red Hills Raceway drag strip, it will be just the first in a line of automotive-related projects expected to fill the area, thespectrum.com reports.

Located adjacent to the Washington County Fairgrounds, the $1.8 million drag strip will cover 10 acres and will allow for more than 2,500 spectators.

Erik Harper of Wild West Property Management, the company overseeing the project, said the strip is projected to open in March. He said he plans to approach the city early next year for approval of a motocross track. Also in the works are a possible circle track, sand track and various automotive businesses. [11/19/09]
