Yea I hear ya. I use to go there and stay until morning. No problems at all, just racing. We would go back and forth... stock yards & Doty. It's all the same now, Strats use to be good, now it's just a bunch of teenage kids with nothing better to do.

I was never a fan of Strats. When I raced SBE in my old Camaro, they stopped traffic on 83 and we ran there. I knew that was a bad call, and cops came shortly after

Doty is good for one thing when all the ricers are there...Driving through with an unmarked car and blipping the siren and shining the spot light on them as the scatter.
But it's still a good road to go get a race off on. Meet somewhere else and do it in the early evening. 8-9pm.

But I will race your WS6 with my Camaro. It is nothing fancy, still has the stock cam, heads, longblock, and is on motor. Street or track, it doesn't matter. And no, I will not do it at Doty. We have plenty of roads that are safer.

I go up to doty every now and then w/ my cousin. It is the only place you can actually be guaranteed racing. It is being completly overun by rice though and idiotic people. I just dont see how racing and alchohol mixes?? And 99dwpa i did race that tahoe too and lost. But he sprayed and I didnt and I couldnt hook at all on the street. It was probably my most embarrasing lost I have ever had but then I found out what was done to it i wasnt as hurt.
