new sand drag track

dynodon · October 26, 2006, 09:19:15 PM

They want a place to race , same as us !!, I say let them race, but they will have to
pay more for entry fee. Only because of the EXTRA maintanance on the track.
But I am in, let them race !!!

H E L L YEAH....they tear a track up very very QUICK.....you might want to bring in some clay to mix with the dirt at the starting line, or you will be working the track after every pass.....they are brutal on a staring line.

the only downside to them being there is you need to run them last...run all the 4 wheelers first, because they are going to tear the starting line up soo bad, that it won't be consistent all night. Once they run, the track will probably go away for the 4 wheelers. Oh, and might want to get backstops for the trucks, because they sling dirt alot farther than any ATV I have ever seen.

i think the cars and trucks will be a good thing to help grow the track. if they start to become a problem with track conditions we will have to move them to a different day. at point more racers the better!

here are pics of the track after they graded it and rolled it last weekend. we finished the roof today but the well didnt go so well. we are not getting water from it yet. i think we are going to have to go down deeper, so next weekend we will try to go another 40 to 50ft down

A PUNCH in the NOSE

I predict the winner of the first heat will hold the track record. I love going out on a limb like this!

Jeff,
I think you could put a blade under the motor and grade the track between rounds with that machine...Are you sponsored by Better Roads?

Keep up the good work...If you build it they will come

fastrnrik · October 31, 2006, 02:38:42 AM

The track looks great. It's nice to see alot of hard work start to actually show something huh? (I speak from experience LOL)

Just curious, how will you maintain the track as it starts to go away while you're racing?

Hoosier Daddy · October 31, 2006, 11:05:02 AM

Water + box blade = smooth....
