Onondaga is definitely pretty cool, i live in leslie and the dragstrip is probably 4 miles from my house. We spent a lot of time there last fall after it opened, theyre making improvements and making it even better as they go. Had some fast cars out there too cant wait to see what this year brings. Would be nice to see 1/4 mile but in my opinion there isnt enough safe shut down area.

Yea its as close as you can get to "in the middle of a cornfield" haha. I remember about 10 years ago a farmer fed cattle on the strip itself lol. Theyve really come a long way tho, the owners sank a ton of money into it and its a nice place now. Still has a country feel for sure haha. Martin is about an hour and half from my house. Were a lot closer to milan i think if traffic is thin we can make milan in about 45 minutes.

Yeah I remember reading the whole history on the Onondaga track. Unfortunately very similar to what has happened to many dragways across Michigan. I'm about 45 minutes from Milan as well. Only thing I don't like there is the waite. I usually go to Lapeer, since it's closer, but the prep is basically nonexistent
