It was a family friendly time. It's so good to see racing here in Jacksonville. They have made amazing strides in getting the track together and are almost ready for the full track to be open with timing system and all. I highly recommend coming out if racing is your thing.
Nice affordable family environment with drag cars and drag bikes. It's a new dragway ! Bring your own prep 500ft dragway. Perfect place to have street racing events ! I drag race , not street race , ladies and gentlemen it's much safer and the police can't give you a ticket or take your car !
That new drawstring is nice! Go check it out. Perfect small town strip." Mufflers" required. 1/8th mile.
They still have a lot of work to do but it gives people somewhere to race. The more they run, the more that will it will improve. Concession prices are not bad.
