Default flashlight drags

beaverun is going to have flashlight drags the next three weeks on friday nights if anyone is interested. coat is 20 dollars. with the wexford starlight cruise ending last week it gives you a place to hang out on a friday night. i usually dont drag the GTR or S but the new owners at beaverun are hoping for a good turn out and maybe generate some interest in coming back on a weekend and tracking their car. they are breaking ground this month on the new south course.

Spectators get in FREE! Racing costs $20 and they will be having autox as well. Wish this would become a regular thing...car cruise, drag racing, autox, kart rentals all at the same time every Friday...nothing but win.

No roll cage and pretty sure you don't need a helmet.

Made a late appearance at the last one. Got romped on by a supercharged AP2. The best part about this is after you do the 1/8th mile, you have to circle the full North track to get back in line.....so I basically just track my car for $20 and don't care about the drag part

And to whom ever asked. No helmet, no cage, NO passengers. Top must be up. Otherwise do whatever you want. Just dont go completely ape shit circling the track or else you'll get kicked. I have an Invida dual and didn't get talked to and I was doing close to 100 on the back stretch. For the price its a good time. Have fun getting up to the track though the drive for the complex is a mine field of potholes.

First off I would like to say I'm sorry about almost hitting you at the track. I picked up some better tires today to hopefully hold the car in a straight line. Spinning 1st, 2nd,and 3rd gets a hard to control.
