I've grown up in PC and Phenix Dragstrip was the first one I ever went to. I went to SDR on Saturday, so PC was out for me. You can check out street-machines.org to keep up with the PC/Columbus area. That's my car at Phenix Dragstrip on the main page. There's a few of us on there. Lotta stangs, but we all get along good most of the time

I dont know much about SDR but p/c has alot of "old" drag cars. some high dollar racing and alot of street cars. Crowd is nice. alot of grudge racers. its an 1/8 mile track. The track hooks pretty good.

yeah, pc used to be a 1/4 track back in the 60's and even had Big Daddy Don Garlits there along with other well know drivers race there back then. PC is probably one of the best hooking tracks in the southeast, but it's only 1/8. My uncle used to race there a lot with a 65 Chevy II, 388ci small block, tubbed and he used a 6.50 gear and a powerglide to run 6.50's there. If it were a 1/4 track, I'd be there every weekend probably It's only about 8 miles from my house.

Warrrrr Eagle ! I agree to that. It's gonna be a great game. Bama coming off it's first loss of the season and AU with confidence after knocking off UGA. Sounds like a head on collision will be at the AU stadium this Saturday
