    The track itself is pretty fast, and track prep isn't wonderful, but it is usually decent. I've raced there several times, and I haven't had any bad experiences there.

        My buddy went up last friday, said it was empty, he got there at 9 (starts at 5) and ran as soon as he go there, no line. I'm going up this friday if the weather holds up, hopefully no lines, last time I went someone emptied their oil pan on the track, nice 2 hour delay while they cleaned everything up.

          yeah, you'll get plenty of runs in, especially that late in the season.

              Eh, raced there once or twice.

              If you have street tires it sucks because you HAVE to drive through the water box, NO way around that.

              People say, because of the surrounding tree's, the air is slightly better which can produce better ET's than e town.

              I have yet to prove that, and it is 2 hrs away from me :(

                  You won't have too much trouble as long as you roll through the waterbox very slowly...lots of fast cars run there and don't have that problem.
