Ok we have a Drag Race event setup for Saturday 3-10-2007 at Speedworld. This day is a normal Saturday Test and Tune Session. There will not be any Junior Dragsters. We will be assigned our own lanes and I have been assured that track prep will be excellent. This is a result of our dissatisfaction on the last club day. Speedworld has asked that we return and they have assured me that we will be satisfied this time.
We look forward to seeing you there.

Honestly they should reduce the price for this event due to all the bad publicity they are getting on here. these guys pay alot to drag so I feel they should reduce

This is not an event just for us. The gate people charge the standard price. If the give us a quality day the money doesn't matter to me.

I take 10W to 303 to 60

Which would be closer from 67th Ave and camelback

101 or the 10 west to 303

How much is the entrance fee
ASUSMC
03-10-07, 01:47 AM
Camelback to the 101. 101 North to Bell Rd. West on Bell Rd to Grand Ave. Right onto Grand Ave. Take it out for about 10 minutes then look for signs that mention the raceway. Once you get on Happy Valley Rd it will take a few minutes at the most and the sign sneaks up on you.

Had a blast seeing everyone out there today. All in all a fun day, ran a 12.7 @ 118...spinning like a mofo. Gotta get more practice. Could have done without the 3" scratch on the drivers door from the runaway canopy. Thanks to all those who caught it to prevent even worse carnage! I knew I should have left that damn thing at home..lol. Ok, time for a crown and coke....
