Grove Creek Raceway

Dostal's need to come in here. Anyway. Their website sucks and I am also new to the whole track thing. Can you give us some details on their types of races? Also about the pricing as well. I'm assuming we just pay the test n tune fee? We are specifically looking at Aug 25th as of right now. Here is the event:

Sat

25

Open Unlimited Test Day 9am-3pm, Gates Open 8am &
NITE Drags Time Trials 4pm

We don't want to go there after 4 and get one run in and be eliminated. We are looking to do multiple passes.

Re: Grove Creek Raceway

Hey d00d.

Honestly I'm not sure, it's been a while since I've been there. They used to have a clear cut $25 street-legal night about once a month, but I'm not seeing those on their site. Those test days may be your best bet, but I would call and see what the deal is with running after 4.

Good luck! let me know what you find out.

Re: Grove Creek Raceway

Test days at Grove are awsome. You could hot lap for hrs till your car blew if you wanted. If you got there at 4 you might get a few time trial runs in before eliminations start. Wish I could make it on the 25th but I will be on vacation and My trans wount be fixed till after then.

That's all the longer your car will run before it breaks down or what? I wouldn't recommend trying to drive it anywhere if it can't go 1 mile That's worse than my 2G.

Yeah, we are going to have to try for some other time. Unless I go then come down for your b-day and give you my time slip for your birthday gift. This is assuming I don't have work that weekend of course.

Re: Grove Creek Raceway

Thanks man.
They emailed me back and said.
"3 time trial run to 1030-11". So what I got was that everyone gets 3 time trials starting at about 5pm, since gates open for "nite drags" at 4pm. Then they run eliminations till 1030pm or 11pm.

Good luck Nizzle.

Re: Grove Creek Raceway

6.004 is the best so far.

60fts are not where they should be.

Re: Grove Creek Raceway

I saw a schedule that showed some Friday night street legal drags in Aug-Sep. I'd call them to be sure but they might have a few left. I think it's only ~$35 for those.
