Kennedale 1/8th mile strip

[cadzilla74]

The Kennedale 1/8th mile has completely resurfaced the track and is now all concrete just like the TX Motorplex in Ennis .... due to weather problems they are already 2 weeks behind the normal opening date for the track...

The good news is, to generate more interest in bracket racing for street legal cars, they have introduced a new class this year.

Street legal cars only that must report a dial-in time of 9 seconds or slower and the only restriction to the class is NO drag radials or slicks of any kind ... beyond that, it is a run-what-ya-brung race for the over-9's class ... (my Mag can run high 8's so I have to drive carefully to compete and not break out here)...

This should be a lot of fun for stock or slightly-modded 5'7's or stock 6'1's .... the point is, it is bracket racing and if your car runs high 8's in the 1/8th mile you need to be able to drive it or config it right to keep it on the 9 second bubble ... reaction time is king here ... it costs nothing to race (except for the $10 entrance fee) ... there will be prize money for the winner each week... eliminations start at 2 PM every Saturday ...

I'd love to see some of our DFW-LX club members get in on this as a regular thing .... should be a lot of fun... This little track is trying real hard to get more people interested in racing without spending big bucks on their ride ... it's a lot of fun and you can't beat paying $10 to race legally on a properly prepared race track versus street racing ... I strongly encourage any of our DFW-LX members that have never thought about racing their cars to give this a try ... it's a lot of fun and you actually get to see how your LX stacks up against Mustangs and Camaros (very well actualy) ... nothing like a time-slip from a sanctioned race track to shut up the moron at the bar....

Your chances of beating me off the line may vary ...

NOBODY?

Holy crap!!! Not one reply to this?! Nobody wants to run legally for a lousy $10 and compete in a bracket race?! I find this so hard to believe .... we get 25-40 cars to a M&G to stand around in a parking lot and take pictures but NOBODY wants to have FUN with their cars in the DFW area?!
