(Photos by David Whealon) – We love covering the big events around here. NHRA nationals, stuff like drag week, the Tri-Five Nationals, LS FEST, and others. We also love covering the smaller events as well. Things like you are about to check out below. This is a low key bracket race gallery from the famed GALOT Motorsports Park in North Carolina and we love the cars and the competition that you are about to dig into.
While large high line events keep a track’s profile high, it is the weekly series like the one you are about to check out that actually keep the doors open. The dedicated competitors who pay their money week in and week out for a shot at fleeting flory and a few bucks paid are the customers that provide the steady revenue stream that a drag strip needs. Lose your weekly program through poor management, attitude, or bad racer treatment and your track is going to be in a heap load of trouble and in a hurry.
GALOT had a wide range of racers on the grounds for this del and you can see it all here!

Great Stuff Dave. The backbone of the sport and 2nd only to Nostalgia racing in my book.
