Too many people, and I could never get a decent launch out of my car. I was spinning hard in second , every time. My buddies were all spinning as well, so I know it wasn't just me.
We went there 3-4 times when I was in school down in CT. Always SOOO packed, you'd be very lucky to get 3 runs in.
Having a track is better than having no track though.

I actually talked to a couple friends about this, we have come to the conslusion it would be more fun to go hang out there on a wednesday night then go to a car show... so I think wednesday nights a few times this year we're gonna go and watch, make funny ricer video's, etc.etc.
Should be fun. Getting any more hten a couple runs at the start/end of the season on a wednesday night.... not gonna happen.

I like LVD, yet I stopped going on Wednesday nights a few years back because I could only get in maybe 2 to 3 runs over 3-4 hours.
The place was swamped with 15-17 second rice burners and that was enough for me.
Personally, I think you shouldn't be able run unless you're under 14 seconds.
Just my opinion. Maybe I'm biased because most LS1 cars run 13 seconds stock

LVD is usually shaky in April. The right hand land lane usually has alot of water seepage because the river runs right along side and water table is always high there in early spring. You really have to pay attention if you line up in the right lane there in springtime, and sometimes they only run TT in left lane only. Over the years, have seen many cars tangle with wall/Jersey barriers in right lane in spring racing at LVD.

Early spring no one is there...10 runs a night.

). When I couldn't afford an LS1 and just had the Formula, I went a bunch of times with it and it was a blast! No slow time/speed restrictions should ever be put on the track, especially when everyone pays the same price!As far as the first day goes, probably way too busy. I wanted to go on the Friday they are renting the track but BlackScreamin can't get out of work. I think we were planning on Saturday April 21st (not that it will probably be much better than the first day...).
