I was only a spectator so I can't answer that very well.
I thought it was a good turn out with everything from vintage to the big turbos.
Food, bathrooms, snow, 2 stroke smoke and av gas. What more does a guy need??

Hi Full Curl

Do you recall how long the strip for drag racing is.
Is there a speed chronograph with digital display or radar and do you recall the speeds they were hitting?

Just wanting to know if I should risk my old bones with this 2003 Mach Z I picked up from Ottawa this fall. Triple triple.

They don't make em like that anymore. Just a lake or pasture machine for drag racing.

Oh boy. No I can't say if there was radar or how it worked.

Strip length was probably 1/8 mile.

Speeds? Kids and some vintage stuff = not too fast.

Stockers = pretty fast.

Turbo = freaking fast.

I don't recall any speed numbers but I've never claimed to have a great memory.

Bring the triple/ triple out and play. They sound sooo cool.

How far do you have to travel?
