Default Denton Dragway anybody?

Does anybody ever go out to the Denton Dragway? I haven't been but it's right by school, and I'm thinkin' about going out there with some friends this week. I've heard it's kind of quiet, which is cool bc I won't be embarrassed if I get a crappy run.

I had also heard it is closed but I went to their website and it showed they would be open this weekend. I had heard several diff. stories on their closing, one was due to the owner getting a divorce and the wife wanting it and another was it had been closed due to vandalism (That is what was posted on their website for a while and they were offering a $10K reward). Newayz, If there are several people going, I would like to take my Formula out as well since I am only like 75 miles away. I know I will get a crappy run with bald 245's. Oh, and I have been to the track many times, a few with a 98 v6/5M camaro and a good many with my 71 chev. pickup on street tires. I love that track.
