    I have never sat more than 10-15 minute. Then again I get there when it opens.

    firebird/speedworld

    too much waiting in line and no traction for me at firebird 1.98 best 60 foot and verry picky tech. speedworld is 80%tracktion most of the time capeble of 1.5 60foots and also you can get a lot of info from the staff alot more friendly.

    I never have any issues in tech, of course I am N/A so nothing special, I have noticed they are definately more picky than speedworld, but they also have alot
    more "non-sports" cars to deal with, like I said before those are fun to see run but not when they break a differential and spew oil all over the track, or when its one of those ricer cars with the missing bumpers, dropping bolts and crap on the track, wish they had domestic night/ import nights, again like Speedworld does !

    Nonetheless, its just going to be too hot for a few months now, last week the track was horrible till couple of hours after the sun went down, I think I will just work on cosmetic mods and hold off racing again till OCT

    Firebird is a damn joke. Went out there for the first time in over a year back in March; I won't be going back there again unless my son wants to see the NHRA nationals.

    4+ hours for 2 runs = fail

    I went to firebird for the first time and had a horrible experience (except for when i got to race) i only got 3 runs in the whole night and like someone else said the "VIP" line ugh just made me cry they got in probably 6-7 runs at the least. where's speedworld just for future reference.

    Thought about going to Firebird last night, cooler temps and some humidity, called around 2pm and the chick who answered the phone said Friday Night Drags were on and it would take a lot of rain to cancel, so I get my drag radials on and head on down, sure enough gates were closed, and it was a beautiful night !! Obviously they just wanted an excuse to cancel cuz of the holiday weekend, that's weak ~!~!

    Just lends more credibility to my statement, Friday Night Drags is starting to s*ck !!
