The only thing worse than watching that preview is knowing that 2 of our Moparts members are going to be in the first show and negotiated for technically the head start and they both lost. I want to negotiate so I leave last. That would leave rich (the host) or whatever his name is speechless.


1970 Duster
Edelbrock headed 408
5.984@112.52
422 Indy headed small block
5.982@112.56 mph
9.42@138.27

Livin and lovin life one day at a time

here is my take. I was on this show with the dart and lost i think it will be cool to be on tv. win or lose. but as some of you no irwindale race way got shut down.this show like it or not has saved our track and gave all us racers some place to race again. I will be the first to admit the show could be better. but it is a form of drag racing so I would like to thank the LUCAS family and rich. for coming out to irwindale. rumor has it the north east will be the next stop

I thought Irwindale had been going again for quite awhile doing the every Thursday night TNT for the last year or so. Are you saying that the only reason they started up again was in anticipation of a promise of the show shooting there?

How has the filming effected the regular TNTers who aren't in the show? Do they get as many runs as on the nights when they don't film?
Thanks for any info, looking forward to checking this track out but not for reasons of the show being there.

I thought all this drama was why they went to pinks all out instead of just pinks. Its the only drag racing tv show so beggars can't be choosers I guess.

It closed in feb. reopen may, but has been on a very tight budget. turn out in the fall last year, and jan this year was weak. Feb had the most cars I've seen in a long time.

If you don't want to be around the show comeout the 2nd or 4th thursday of the month and please buy into the king of the hill bracket. $10 watch, $20tnt, $20 buy in K.O.H bracket 100% to winner or split racers decide. I guarantee you will not be the only Mopar there.

Also 1st Summit race of the year this sunday, limited tnt will be available.
