Question Sacramento Raceway field trip? (Again, and this time FOR REALZIES)

Like the title says folks, who's interested?

We've been tossing this idea around at a few meets, and it might be fun to revisit the 'ol drag strip weather permitting (if it cools down).
I think it's $8 to watch and $20? to race. Obviously you don't have to race, there's tons of places to sit/relax/watch and refreshments for sale too. Kids welcome of course.

I'm thinking next wed, or the one after that? But nothing is planned/set at all, this thread is just to see if anyone's interested.

SACRAMENTO RACEWAY MOTORSPORTS PARK ? Since 1970

I would be curious to see where Toby is now. Surely, quicker than 12.1 now.

Looks like most Wednesdays through June have street legal races from 5:00pm to 9:30pm (gates at 4:00).

They have test and tune on Saturday June 23 from 1:00pm to 5:00pm (same weekend as autocross) and Friday June 29 (day before CMI so it'll probably be packed).

Looks like they're closed the first half of July. Test and tune Saturday July 14 and Wednesday night street legals start again on July 18.

Oh that's right you're up quite a bit of power now very curious to see that bad boy run again.

Test-n-tune is cool but the last time I went they had some junior dragster event and it was so packed we literally got 1 run in for the entire day. Total waste of $50

So does Wed next week or the week after that sound promising?

lolno

I tried to order one last week but the vendor was out of stock. Just got my refund today. After Sonoma on Saturday, the clutch felt fine. Other thought is that it might have been glazed a little. IDK, I plan to check it again today.

Fun fact: Don't tell them you were racing. They won't tow you if you say you were racing.
