If you are a reader of HOT ROD magazine, you no doubt know what "Drag Week" is. I wrote to them over a year ago indicating that we would LOVE to host one of the dates at our facility.
It took awhile, but they have inquired about coming to GLD on Thursday September 13, 2007. Spoke to Randy yesterday as a followup.

IT'S A GO!!! :banana1: :thumbsup :wow

Here's a link to a PDF that explains rules and classes:

This should be REALLY cool, either as a spectator or a racer. Yes it is on a weekday but that's how they choose to run it. Tuffster will prep the track so it's gonna hook, and I can't wait, this is really exciting.

Hope to see a lot of BCM people there! You could get some national exposure in one of the oldest and original "Car Magazines" of all time.

We will post more details as they become available. You don't want to miss this, it should be awesome.

considering Dennis is the starter like his is for all the big events, hopefully he needs some "help" at the starting line

So the fact that this is on a Thursday during the day isn't going to deter some of you from attending?

I just hope I'll be able to get out of school, hopefully I can talk the old man into callin me out of school, or hell I'll just skip, but I'll probably have to leave if it's still goin on past 1:30, cause of football
