    Exclamation Temple-Academy Raceway.

    Did you guys know there was a drag strip in Central Texas? We should all meet there for a "Meet and greet". Here's a link.

    I would attend. A couple a friends with different cars want to go and do a boys night out. I could set them up with the M/G and watch their jaws drop as I smoke them. Lets set a date!

    Sounds good. Apparently only "Stock" cars are allowed to run the 1/4; faster cars can only go 1/8 mile. It wasn't like that 30 years ago when I first ran there. Actually 32-33 years ago; in a '68 Dodge Coronet R/T 440 Magnum 727 auto. and 3.91 Sure-Grip diff. I think I did 13.91, but the previous owner claimed 12's.

    Anybody go to the track last weekend?

    A couple of us are heading to Ennis May 5. I've never ran at a track so it's going to be interesting for me. If it gets my blood boining I'll be looking for more

    Maybe we could end up here for a little legal racing.

    Just a suggestion but we could meet downtown Round Rock, have a bite to eat, drool over each others car, use Cadzilla74's Star Scan then head out to the raceway.
