There is a 1/8th mile track south of Lawton right off of the highway. I've been there once it seemed like a pretty good track.

It has been a year since I went so im not for sure how things are now, but when I went I was pretty happy with it. It is a lot better then Thunder Valley in Noble. Their not a NHRA track, so the they are not strick at all. I have a T-Top car and I didnt have to wear a helmet.

I think the rules say that for a 10sec car your suppose to have atleast an 8 point, but i dont think they are going to look in your car to make sure. And Nobles track prep is horrible.

yea Thunder Valley pretty much sucks. Im sure you would be fine with a 6 point. This weekend a friend of mine made a 10 sec pass with only a 6 point.

Im not for sure on that one. I dont think it would be that much, from what I've heard they are not to difficult to install.

I think that Thunder Valley is pretty good compared to the tracks here in Cali.. I can't wait to move back home... Their "track" here is an 1/8th mile track at Qualcomm which is basically a parking lot that is blocked off... It REALLY sucks...

Thunder Valley isnt the best track when it comes to prep but there leanient on tech issues. I hear the Tulsa track is a far better track but I havnt been there since I was five years old.

BTW... im running a Wolfe bolt in 6 point.
