Would love to stop by... but probably wont make it. Did you get permission from them? Or just some fast runs, and get out?

weather pemitting I will be out there . gotta get some tuning done on this buggy. I ran it today but she needs some attention we were bashing after work . A company dropped 2 semi loads of stone , so ... BASHING TIME!!!!!!! 
I raced a Savage and smoked his ass, even giving 4 and a swing so its fast enuff , well not really but it will do . I might change the pipe out , Don has some different pipes , I might even try the Savage Ribbed pipe .
well if anyone goes out there tonite , cya then

132 is the standard distance but like to do it the long way so you get all the speed you want plus you can see what its really like in second at top end or third if you got a three speed we race about 200ftso keep it straight( lets race dammit)

Good Question.
I'm not sure at the moment, but Geno (the guy that runs these) is supposed to be talking to me sometime this week. I'll try giving him a call and finding out what's up, and let you know ASAP.

I just talked to Geno, and here's the latest info.
The next 'big' drag event is going to be at the end of June. So there's a little time for that. The cool thing is they have a new 'test and tune' location!
Holeshot Drag Race Test and Tune
EVERY Saturday night (weather permitting) 4:30 to ????
120th & Cicero in Alsip Illinois!
It's supposed to be a big auto auction parking lot. And clear of cross traffic. (whew)
We will probably try and get out there one night in the near future.
