I don't know how it's running these days, but a couple years ago when gas was cheaper, there were so many people that all of the staging lanes were full and backed up beyond the souvenir stand. You'd get 1, maybe 2 runs in per night.

Be sure to let us know how it goes.

How was the track prep? I never have been able to lay down a decent 60' out there. The ricers keep draggin water onto the starting line. I think that's a universal problem though, lol.

Sweet!
The lack of a crowd is probably a sign of the times. High gas prices are biting into peoples budgets.

Thanks for the update. I might have to go out there next time and see how my new Zex plate runs.

And that would be fun, I like that track a LOT! But, I was thinking I'd like to get a 1/4 mile time on it.
It does run pretty stout in the 1/8 though! It's gone a best of 7.33 @ Redline.

When the weather cools off, I'm gonna try and make the rounds to a few of my favorite tracks. :biggthumpup:

If you make it this way, then give me a holler! I went there friday night and all I could muster out was 9.86 and a 60' of 2.34. I am still spinning but I am getting better on the launches.

I ran a best of 9.785 with a CAI, Hypetech @ premium and catback...So I've got over a grand invested and I am going slower...lol. I think with cooler weather to match the 9.785 day, then I can get past this 9.86!

I couldn't tell ya. The wife threw those slips away shortly after I raced it. I never did have a chance to scan it.

The evening was also a lot cooler and way less humidity. It was sometime around April to May of 2007 that I went to the track for the first time ever.
