Default Grudgefest in Crandall this weekend

Does anybody have any idea if a big turnout is expected? I was thinking about taking the stocker out to run the 7.0 class but didnt want to make the haul if nobody is going to be there. I have seen the flyer on Dallas Raceways website but hadnt heard anything else on here.

Thanks for the info Sean. I found out they plan on running a .400 pro tree. I have never seen a footbrake class run on a Super Gas/Comp Style tree. Hell, I dont think my car will react that fast to even cut a decent light. But i guess everybody is playing by the same set of rules. Im planning on coming out so I guess I will see you there.

The 7.0 class that Redline Raceway puts on is very nice and is on time.

It was a waste of time but.... 6 of us made $175 after the mustang blow up down the track. They couldn't clean the track it was to bad so they closed down.

Three of the top six were from Ls1Tech.

Yeah that was an experience to remember for sure. I knew it would be bad but I didnt know it was yellowbelly. At least we werent the ones that got shanked over 20 bucks. Ill call that a successful day

Note to self: No more attending races that have the word "grudge" anywhere near them.

That 7.0 class was cool though. Have to try it again sometime and hopefully we can actually run em

That’s the first time that’s ever happened at Dallas Raceway.

I had to keep telling the group around me to be quite about the stabbing with my son there. That would have been the first thing my son would have said to his mom.. We go to that track all the time and I didn’t want her to get scared over something like that. I won’t be going to that group event either anymore.


But we did have a great time with all the people that parked around us. We had the grill going glad you came by and had some food.
