Thanks for sharin....that's pretty bad *** vid. I woulda thought that the fastest n/a car would've did better than 160 though.

In Georgia and I knew nothing about this... :-( Not that my slow pile could break 80mph in 1/2 mile anyway.

Nice. Wish they had something like that here. Without the 2,700' altitude! that's gotta hurt in a 1/2 mile race.

It did, I was a awsome layout, except they had no return road as most airports, so the two cars would have to slow down, turn around at the end of the strip and come back to a turn off near the finish, so this made it take long to run the cars. they have stated they will be back. The next one is in Fl.

Carrabelle Speed Festival
This event will be held at the Carrabelle-Thompson airport in Carrabelle, FL on October 27th, 2012 . It will take place on an open runway giving competitors a full half mile of open throttle acceleration! What makes this event truly special is that participants will be allowed to compete against each other head to head in a safe environment, without being limited to the standard 1/8 or 1/4 mile distance.. Not only will this event provide a surreal experience of driving down an active runway at adrenaline pumping speeds. There will also be a live DJ spinning tracks all day long as well as food vendors to feed you when you’re ready for a break or a quick snack.
