Wow, maybe those people are more cool than I give them credit for. Time will tell.
I'm still bitter over the fact one of their people shot a rider, I'll have to check it out I guess.

PLAYBOY_400 · April 25, 2007, 11:07:44 AM

THERES A LOT OUT THERE. THERES YOU CLASSIC CARS(MUSTANGS, CAMAORS). THEN YOU GOT HONDAS TOYOTAS MAZDA MISTUBISHI. ALOT OF MOTOR CYCLES ON SATURDAYS. ITS A BIG MIX OF EVERYTHING. ITS A PRETTY FUN PLACE. KEEPS A LOT OF PEOPLE OF THE STREETS FROM RACING.

PLAYBOY_400 · April 25, 2007, 11:08:13 AM

YEAH THEY ARE PRETTY COOL OVER THERE AT THE DRAG STRIP. NEVER BEEN TO THE MX PARK MYSELF. HE IS TRYING TO GET A BUNCH OF LAND TO OPEN FOR TRAILS OU THERE BY THE DRAG STRIP TO. I HEARD THOUGH THAT THEY SHOT A RIDER BECAUSE HE WAS TRESPASSING AT NIGHT. I KNOW ITS NOT AN EXCUSE BUT MAYBE WHOEVER DID IT IS JUST A COWARD AND GOT SCARED.

No need to rehash all that, if he is keeping these street racers off us27 and Krome, and the rest of our roads, more power to him. He is doing a good thing.

miami...... what kind of people go to these races?

its about a 3hr drive for me

Miami-

Personally I'd wait for some pictures and reports from people before making that long haul.
Unfortunately I'll be out of this dump of a city for the weekend, so no pictures or report from me.

DVEGA07 · April 25, 2007, 01:01:47 PM

1/8TH TRACK VERY PRIMITIVE, GOOD FOR US LOCALS THAT DON'T HAVE ANYTHING BUT NOT WORTH THE 3 HOUR DRIVE. MY .02 CENTS

PLAYBOY_400 · April 25, 2007, 01:26:11 PM

YEAH ITS NICE FOR LOCALS. BUT I DONT THINK ID DRIVE 3 HOURS FOR IT. IM ALWAYS OUT THERE AT NIGHT AND ILL BE THERE FRIDAY NIGHT WITH MY TRUCK AND MY BROTHERS TRUCK. BUT I DONT TAKE PICTURES. DONT EVEN HAVE A CAMERA AND MY PHONE SUCKS FOR PICTURES.

Southern4x4 · April 25, 2007, 04:08:58 PM

Not intended to be negitive but Ive been to this track before. I wouldnt race on it if I had a car, it is a very tight track not much room for error. First time I went there a car got squirley and lost it flipped like 8+ times and went into the other lane. Thank god the driver was ok and running by him self. Then it took like 30 mins for the rescue crews to get there and then they had to go all the way around the track because the fire engin wouldnt clear under the wires above the christmas tree. Dont get me wrong its awesome that people have a place to race besides the streets and all but its pretty dangerous.

PLAYBOY_400 · April 25, 2007, 04:13:33 PM

YOU HAVE A POINT....ITS JUST LIKE MYSELF OR ANY ONE ELSE GOING INTO SOMETHING NEW. THEY DONT KNOW UNTIL THEY EXPERIENCE SOMETHING. ITS ALL NEW TO THEM BUT THEY ARE GETTING BETTER. FOR ANYONE LOCAL. YOU SHOULD CHECK IT OUT. IT IS TIGHT BUT ITS FUN AT THE SAME TIME. ALOT OF FAMILIES OUT THERE HAVING ENJOYING THEMSELVES.

How long a ride is that for you?

PLAYBOY_400 · April 25, 2007, 04:30:22 PM

rubicon500kid · April 25, 2007, 05:20:18 PM

i was out there a few weekends ago its fun

hey jr did u see a blue chevy 1500 ss its an 03 out there ? thats my friends

im thinking about taking my dirt bike out there when i get done fixing it
im also thinking about taking my lil 110 out there too just for the heck of it

Southern4x4 · April 25, 2007, 05:33:24 PM

Ehh no affence but it was a little to Latin for me and my dad since all the announcments were in spanish and we dont speak that.

snowmanzz13 · April 25, 2007, 08:51:06 PM

Ha, I doubt it. That strip is sure narrow. You would need big cahones to try a pair of 9 second cars there..

PLAYBOY_400 · April 26, 2007, 07:57:13 AM

I DONT KNOW AOBUT THE AGE THING. I GUESS YOU WOULD HAVE TO FIND OUT. I HAVE THE NUMBER HERE IF YOU WANT. ITS 305-879-6660. ITS NARROW BUT STILL SOMETHING FUN TO DO. YOU GET TO RACE OTHER QUADS AND SEE WHERE YOURS STAND AND HOW MUCH FASTER YOU WANT TO GO OR WHAT NOT. AS AFAR AS THE LATIN THING...I DONT THINK IT SHOULD MATTER. ITS FUN EITHER WAY. I DONT SEE WHY IT SHOULD TURN INTO A RACIAL THING. EVERYONE GOES OUT THERE JUST TO HAVE FUN AND RACE. YES THE GUY SAYS A FEW THINGS IN SPANISH BUT BIG DEAL. YOUR THERE TO WATCH THE CARS NOT LISTEN TO THE GUY.
WHATS UP EFREN. I DONT REMEMBER SEING A BLUE SS BUT I WOULD LIKE TO. TELL HIM TO COME OUT THIS FRIDAY NIGHT AND RUN MY BROTHERS TRUCK. I DONT KNOW ABOUT THE ATC THOUGH. IVE NEVER SEEN ONE THERE BEFORE. GIVE HIM A CALL AND ASK.

PLAYBOY_400 · April 26, 2007, 07:59:16 AM

sorry again for the caps lock. im at work.

Southern4x4 · April 26, 2007, 08:17:50 AM

Nah it wasnt intended to be racial, it was pretty cool but after the guy wrecked and such we didnt know what was going on or if he was ok for a while since everything was in spanish.

PLAYBOY_400 · April 26, 2007, 08:38:42 AM

oh ok. its just the way things are. its still fun ....to me anyway. im out there every week.

Southern4x4 · April 26, 2007, 09:09:55 AM

Yea it was still fun and some pretty nice sand rails were out there. Unforunitly we didnt know it was a special tuner event when we went out there and my dad and my dads friend had to pay $20 just to watch. $:-\$ Other than that there were some pretty cool vehicals out there and stuff, once they get settled and learn the ropes and what not it would probably be a cool place to go.
