Default Drag n' Brag @ Texas Motor Speedway (Friday)

Anyone go to this? I guess it's only until early August. Look's kinda fun. I don't think there's any times, just drop hand racing. Looks to be in the pits.

I've been wanting to go, but haven't been able. Mustangs have taken it every week so far. There are some good vids on Youtube if you search em....

I thought about going, but $20 to race on an unprepped surface? Plus the rules are ****.

I'm curious how quick those Mustangs are though.

No I didn't. If I edited the post, it would say it right below it. You just misread it.

My bro has been running his GTO out there for the past few weeks. He enjoys it. His complaint is the same as volcanic2345's, though, they put him next to some really hard tuned cars just because they have V8s and he has V8s. His GTO only has a catback...no other mods. He said that he can never hook up, either. He is running street tires and said he breaks loose on every pass. Still has a good time though. I guess that is all that matters.

Thank you very much everyone.
The event was pretty fun overall.
Yes, all of those runs made were made on motor, no nitrous.
I definitely had to peddle it out the hole.
Hope to make it out there again next weekend to take it home again.


If anyone got any pictures or videos of any of the runs, please let me know/post them up.

How much HP is your car making on motor? You were pulling me pretty good. Then 3rd f'ed up again, and you were gone.
