When is this? This Saturday? I haven't been to Mountain Parkway Dragstrip for 20 years or so. I have a neighbor that has been down there more recently to race his Harley Davidson, and he said that is his favorite strip! It is a class operation and is definitely a family oriented business. Unfortunately I am busy the next few Saturday evenings, otherwise I would be there, and bring my family.

John, this is just an info thread. Test & Tune nights are Friday nights only.

This will be in the spring of next year, so plenty of time to make arrangements! I will be giving out some certificates at the meet for:

-Fastest E/T
-Fastest Speed
-Longest distance traveled

Fastest ET? Not a chance.
Fastest speed? Forget about it.
Longest distance? Give me a break!
