Yellowstone Dragstrip

I don't know that I would consider Minot when figuring places to race a stocker.

in these times, you have to run wherever and whenever you can. it isn't a time to be picky.

I guess I don't mind the traveling, I've done it with a stock car/bump-n-run and demo derby cars for a few years now, but it's nice to be somewhere familiar, I have lived and worked in Billings off and on and have family there. My goal was to take a shot at Divisionals in my home state. I have the track here, so I for sure have a place to bracket race and dial in my combo. Malta is 2 hrs north, I'm anxious to see how that track is coming along (I heard they may go IHRA), and I didn't even think about Douglas. I'll race here regardless, I started racing in high school drags (since nothing else was available to race when I was 16), and have wanted to get back to it a little more seriously. Stock has been my favorite since I got into racing. I'll build the stocker for sure, I had planned on going to Eagle Idaho and Mission BC, but like I said, it was just going to be neat to try to run a divisional close to home.

I heard through the grapevine the Menholt family, who have a huge GM dealership in Billings, are looking to take over.

I hope youre right but as bad as the car business is and with the new giant dealership and a ton of cars sitting there, he might have all he can do just to keep the doors open on the dealership. Not to mention his dragster and the 2 kids that have new state of the art promod/bracket cars
