Interesting, it looks like fun, although a bit messy maybe 
We run a dragster (Chebby powered), but my '91 Ford F250 (and soon to be my '55 F350) are what gets us there and back. You can check it out at: http://www.concretegarage.com/rubriq...id_rubrique=11

You need to go big block Ford powered (just kidding but I bet you would be suprised)
most of the tracks are 165-200 ft long (it's not like drag racing were it's either 1/8th or 1/4 mile) The one in that video was 200' and I am in the low 4s now on those length of tracks with the 39s I had on it in that video I should be able to be in the high 3 second range.

i would love to come up but with the cost of gas and the twins it anit happening. we are racing saturday night out at 34 raceway though. should be a big crowd this week as the sprint cars are a coming. we race in the hobby stock class . And it isnt getting slow in here either. it is a dead stop. i guess with the end of summer coming up people are trying to get some use out of the nice weather before we cant anymore. Give it time it will be a posting war soon enough again.

yeah your probably right guess that means I need to get a life since my average post count has gone up all summer. But then again I get up at midnight to go to work, and don't actually leave till 2:30 so have plenty of time then to post away.

Hey Concrete, is Mike Meier still running his Altered over there? It's been a while since I talked to him, he used to race over there all the time. How about Dennis Rotter? He still running his Funny car? Last time I was to Cordove I watched him win his second UDRA Chapionship...

Well went to reasoner yesterday, and had a GREAT day took first in both modified, and open class.
I let Jacob (saurin) run the truck through one time here is a video of him driving my truck.....good for a laugh anyway.
http://www.supermotors.org/vehicles/....php?id=240897
and here is a couple of vids of me racing it the first one is actually my first run of the day in modified class.
http://www.supermotors.org/vehicles/....php?id=240793
and this second one is actually the last run of the day and was the final run to determine first, and second in outlaw/open class. I think you can tell the truck I am racing against is running paddle tires, he also has a 514cid ford, and running a 200hp shot of nitrous.
