  • What is your "home" Drag Strip and ?

    Mine is New York International near Rochester NY 120 miles from home. I only race t&t, bracket, grudge on Wednesday nights. Twice a year at ESTA 30 miles from home but track has problems.
    Usually once to lebanon vally 180 miles from home.
    Around 80 passes before DW.
    This i am adding arm drop drags in Allen KY 500 miles from home before PT.
    We had four strips close to home now 1.
    Weekends u just cant get the runs in to be on your game.

            Firebird about 15 miles, gonna close. Speedworld is about 60 miles and is closing. Tucson about 80-100 miles and may be my new track.

            DA around here is about 3000ft most times.

            When I lived in Albuquerque the DA was like Denver.

                Tulsa 20 minutes down the road. First time down the track last year was DW and it showed all week. Will run the tires off it during T&T beginning March 2. Not sure what other events I'll run, but will be there every chance I get.

                              Kansas International Dragway (KIDragway.com). It used to be named Wichita International Raceway.
                              It's the track where I made my very first drag strip passes.
                              It's also the track where the Blazer ran its first (and only) eight second pass.
