Default Rock Falls Raceway

Hey does anyone around here go to Rock Falls Raceway? If so, how is the track? I've never raced at a drag strip yet and this is the closest one to where I live so I'm thinking about going sometime soon. Is anyone else going there soon?

I go near that every day on my drive from Wausau to Stout every day. I didn't realize it was in Elk Mound until I just looked it up on their web site. I will have to take a dive over there one day when I have free time during classes. btw do you have any pictures of your car, idk if I have seen it around or not.

That track blows! I graduated from UWEC and in my time spent in Eau Claire (15mins from the track) i raced my car once there. They are overpriced, and if you don't run slicks you will never hook. Also they are very strict on tech. If you don't have exactly everything up to date safety equipment you won't be able to run your car.

I agree, track sucks. Couldnt hook my car on drag radials. Turned up the boost and went to Cedar Falls IA(Great track) and it hooked with more power.

Owner overcharges and underpreps.

Well this is shitty, I was hoping to find a decent track near me. Doesn't look like that is going to be the case haha.

Surprised to hear the negative comments. Al Corda owns the track, and as good a racer he is I'd expect better.
