I wouldn't recommend Cecil on a Friday night....overly crowded with ****. On Saturday's they are good with the prep of the track. Sometimes on Saturdays they have Pro Mods or Quick 8 cars test and tuning there. If they can hook, you can.

Hey Fireball, you better post up when your going to make some runs with that nasty Outlaw of yours
The last time I went there, everyone was running about .5 slower. Like I said in an earlier post, I ran a 13.3@109 with all mods but the LS6 and I had ET Streets. That really pissed me off that I didn't get atleast a 12.9 pass. I will never go on a Friday again atleast to race. Saturdays they fuly prep the track and don't have 200 Joe Shmoes trying to run their 14-15 second Civics all night. Mostly only the big boys tend to show up and is alot more entertaining to watch, but the NHRA rules are really enforced.

I've been to Atco last year but wasn't racing. That looked like a pretty nice track too me, but I couldn't tell how good it really is.Then again I'm not a track expert and probably couldn't tell the difference between a good track and a bad one. I just like to have fun and that's it, not really too competitive. I would love to try Cecil one day though. I think it's about an hour away from where I live or so I hear. Guess I should get directions sometime and see.

I'm going to wait a few weeks after it opens, no need to rush going to a track full of high school kids (even though I'm probably no better)
Besides I still need to find two chrome 10 spoke rims and buy some MT's to put them on
