Anybody ever been here?

Didn't know there was a track there. Tee shirts, windows open, etc.
Probably not NHRA? LOL

Kevin, Thorn Hill replaced the clocks several years ago with a Christmas tree. From my understanding the clocks were sold at auction. Don't know how true it is however one of the clocks is said to be in Garlits' museum in Florida.

Raced at about 25, have been to about 40 over the years.
Wish some of them were still with us!

Been to 39, raced at 34. First dragstrip I went to was San Gabriel Valley CA in 1957.

I raced at 16 different tracks in2010. I would'nt even know where to begin to count how many.
I've raced in 16 different states off the top of my head maybe more.

I've raced at 19; only visited or passed by 2-3 others. Two of the obscurer ones I've been to were Strato-Rods Dragway on McGuire AFB in NJ and the short-lived Wayne County Speedway Dragstrip in Pikeville NC.

I've only won an eliminator there twice; I got a runner-up last June. The racing is insanely tough at that track.
