Well obviously I'm new to MN. Where in the hell are all the tracks? Anyone got any links to local tracks?

Drag strips or road courses?

How about looking at the stickies at the top of this forum? Those are the 3 tracks most go to. Brainerd is also a possibility, but pretty much just on Wed. nights as there are usually big events there on the weekends.

What's the track prep like on those three? NHRA? IHRA? Long lines? Nitrous refills? Scale?

There is an 1/8th mile track at Grove Creek that used to be good for test and tune on Friday nights when it was $20. It was also a lot of fun to drive out there and beat up on the St. Clown guys! Now its $35, doesn't seem worth it as its not a 1/4 mile and its only open from 7PM-10:30PM.

Rock Falls track prep is shitty on import days, Brainerd track prep is shitty on Wednesday nights, and Cedar Falls seems to be pretty decent whenever anyone from here visits the track. Brainerd has the nicest facilities, then Rock Falls, and then Cedar Falls.

Cedar Falls is the cheapest to race at but its a 3+ hour drive where as Rock Falls and Brainerd are 1-2 hour drive.

Yahoomaps says it's over three hours to Brainerd from Lakeville. That's not too bad if the track is a nice, well prepped track though. Are all these tracks located farther north or is Brainerd the northmost track?

BIR is up north, Rock Falls is over in WI by Eau Claire and Tri-State and Cedar Falls are in Iowa. A quick google search will bring up their websites. There is also Interstate up by Fargo.
