Do any of you guys ever take your cars out to the drag strip or road courses. I think the only drag strips in southern wisconsin is Byron and Great Lakes right? Is there one in madison? And what all Road Courses are there, i know road america of course, but is it even open for people to go to and what about Blackhawk farms raceway, near janesville?

cant speak for him, but i have seen that s10 before. I "raced" him once although not much of one, I was most of the way sideways and let out at about 40. No traction at all on street tires lol.

only reason I wonder is because he posts on the same v8s10 forum i do and his town is also brodhead, now I'm not gonna lie, I have no idea where the hell brodhead is, so it cant really be too miserably big.... lol

i guess the moral is not every S10 with a ladder rack is an easy kill,
