Welcome to the upstate. I live about 2 miles from Greer Dragway and im usually there on thursday nights. If your used to a nicely prepped track your in trouble cause Mike doesnt do a very good job on thursdays so its pretty damn slick. Usually a good crowd though and there's some nasty cars that show up sometimes.

LOL Well it would still be good to practice on considering it will only be 9 miles from my new house. How many runs can you get in at the Greer drag strip? Where is the closest 1/4 mile to Greer?

I don't live there yet, but I'm moving down in a month. I will be a few miles north of Wade Hampton Blvd in the Taylors area. It's good to know there are some shops around that you guys feel good recommending.
I don't know if there's a 1/4 mile closer than Atlanta Intl Dragway. It's 1.5-2 hours down I-85 from my new house. I was in the area a few weeks ago and drove by the track just as John Force's race trailer was pulling in... It looks pretty nice.

Well, I'm back the Z motor is dead, piston rings shot. So, built a 408 nitrous motor for it. Well changed mind mid stream and bought a Vette, Now trying to figure out how to get vette motor out and 408 in. Vettes look much harder than camaro for R + R of motor.
