Wood Brothers is an 1/8th mile track in Sallisaw is about 1-1/2 Hours Southeast.

Thunder Valley is a 1/4 mile track in Noble is a little over 2 hours.

Not having a track anymore really makes me think twice about modding my car now. I guess I could make it look nicer now, but that's not as fun to me. I guess I feel like I lost a booty call, the track was always available and satisfied my needs. Now that it's gone I'm stuck shadow racing, which is like masturbating.

As far as I can tell, it will be open until the 22nd/23rd.

I plan on going to TNT on the 21st...as long as the gates are open.

Anybody going out tonight for TNT? I know I'm going tomorrow, but I'm going to try for tonight as well. Hopefully I can get that 11 sec street tire pass before the track is gone forever

That would be cool. I went last night and the turn out was awesome. I made 2 passes and blew my clutch into pieces on the last run. I'll be out there tonight, won't run since my new clutch will have no miles on it.

Wow there are more peps from Green Country than I though. I am super pissed it is closing down! I love going to the Midnights and TNT! I think they should not tear it down and just leave it! And as far as I'm concerned Thunderbird SUCKS.

On the TRP forum it has been announced that the track has been leased out for the next 3 years. So we are in luck and will have a track for a while
