Default Free Drag Racing tonight!

Any of you want to head out to the new track in Crandall TX for a little Test-n-Tune action? Its the grand opening of the track tonight, so admission and racing is FREE! Yeah, thats right you cheap bastards - FREE! 5pm - midnight.

I'll probably be there around 9pm when it cools down a little. Anyone want some of my daily-driven SUV?

wish i was closer. they are making it free so youll come waste your slicks at their starting line so it will start biting. dont expect stellar times because traction will most likely be a huge issue. it will get better once some rubber is rubbed in though

REally, the track is finally open? That is awesome, Ennis is just a PIA since it is never open!

Dude - just jump in I-20 and head east.

I've driven by the track a few times lately. Its a real nice looking place. Also, going by topographical maps, it has about 100' lower elevation than Ennis.

Yeah, I don't care for Ennis either. This should be much better since its open Thurs, Fri, Sat and Sun for racing. (and its only 10 minutes from my house)

Plus its IHRA, not NHRA like Ennis.

You on the west side?

That was always a worry when I went to Ennis - 'how the heck am I going to get home if I break something'.
