No, haven't gone yet.

I want to go to Ennis, which is the only 1/4 mi. track around here but it's like an hour and a half from me. I may just go up to Sanger (1/8 mi.) to practice my launches since it's only 30 minutes from here.

I wanna make sure I'm good at it before I drive an hour and a half to race.

Not gone to any tracks, and probably wont. Just not what I like to do.

I do have a friend in Victoria that I visit often and we usually drive to Corpus area. I will make a post before I head down that way again.

Track

I took my redline to the track when I first got it.I ran a 14.7 at 95mph.But I would not hook at all.I would like to try a set of nittos.The only thing that has been done to my car is lowered.I play around with a buddy of mine In a 01 cobra all the time.These cars really run pretty strong.I have and still do race mustangs all the time.I have a 89LX I am building right now.It has a 70mm turbo kit.

Well, there are 1/8th mi. strips in both Kennedale and Sanger (Denton) and the only 1/4 mi. track is in Ennis.

It usually costs about $15 to $20 to run all night.
