I'm partial to Budds Creek / MIR myself, it's close to home.

Re: What is your favorite dragstrip?
 

Billy, unfortunately all we can do is fondly remember what Island was back when we young.
It sure isn't what we raced at anymore.

Re: What is your favorite dragstrip?
 

Billy - After all the ugly beatings you got there I'd think it was your least favorite ........But I guess you'll always have a place in your heart for the "patch" .............

Re: What is your favorite dragstrip?
 

Although Island is the track I have been to the most and is close to home it was never my favorite track.

I would have a hard time deciding between Maple Grove and E-Town

Won races at E-Town.....makes it a special place. Was there when it was far different than today in the mid 60's....Raced there a lot....

Maple Grove is just a really nice place to be at racing...and the ride there is not bad.......Whenever I go there I'm happy....When I come down the hill and see the track I'm smiling.....


I have to add I saw some great racing at Island and some of the biggest names in the sport there....and it is a shame how it has slid downhill....I have to twist my own arm just to go there anymore....

Jack, those "ugly beatings" built character. And Attitude!

Re: What is your favorite dragstrip?
 

Norwalk - Great facility and great management.

Re: What is your favorite dragstrip?
 

Billy - I see that ...........you certainly are a character with attitude .............

Re: What is your favorite dragstrip?
 

Tri State in Ohio as a starter track. Bowling Green for character and Joliet/ or Gators for Beautiful track facility.. (never ran Norwalk)
Cant leave out INDY, the Home of all Drag racing History and emotion.

Re: What is your favorite dragstrip?
 

Yeah,Billy sure does take the high road.

Re: What is your favorite dragstrip?
 

For weekly bracket racing in the 90's-Little River in Temple Tx-best payouts and lot of fun for a little money

Divisional track-Boise-the owners and staff truely appreciate the racer and cheap eats

National event-Las Vegas-great facilities for racers and fans

Re: What is your favorite dragstrip?
 

Las Vegas is a great facility. I like Mission since it's local and familiar.

Re: What is your favorite dragstrip?
 

Atco
Cecil County
E-Town
Maple Grove

Re: What is your favorite dragstrip?
 

No honorable mention for National Trails?:rolleyes:........:D

Re: What is your favorite dragstrip?
 

These days I like Norwalk for facility and proximity. I also liked Las Vegas since we have been there more than any other track excpt Norwalk.

I used to like Dragway 42 in Ohio, once upon a time in the 60s it hosted NHRA Nationals, and I remember Shirley Muldowney running off the end of very short shutdown, going across the entry road, and into the corn field where the drying stalks of corn finally slowed her to a stop. They also took off most of the paint on her car too..lol The shut off is short, uphill and poorly lit. So at night it was driving into a black hole.. But that was my home track then and my little green Ford Falcon, the Tin Lizzard in C/MP liked it.

Yes, those were the days!
