The DA here can be over 8000', 6300 is the best I've ever seen. It's depressing till you hit the trck and realize everyone is in the same boat...I've learned not to compare my times with anayone outside of ALb.
Our track is closing after this year and nothing new planned, so he'll probably be racing in Colorado/Vegas & AZ. Maybe Roswell, NM.
Oh man say it ain't so. I grew up at that track and have many fond memories of racing there during my highschool years!! We used to race with Phil Jaramello, grew up watching Willard, Ben, Widow Maker, Iron Butterfly and not to mention a little chebby luv with a 440/727 that just used to hum down the track!! It will really be missed.
P.S. I heard they are going or trying to build a race complex up where I used to live in Meadowlake?
Sorry for the hijack.

It's closing...Too bad too, the new owners are dedicated to making it decent place to race. Big crowd last weekend too.
It's on leased land from the BLM, it's really changed out there in the past couple years...Manuf. plants, a Movie Studio...And a huge housing development planned...Mesa Del Sol.
There's interest to build a new strip, land is available west of Alb off I-40...Just no money right now.
Cheby Luv with a 440/727...That's different!

Hi Bruce...
I'm the guy with the Red Dakota that was drooling over your car all day long at the MOPAR show. Sorry about dragging pics of your car over here, but I figured a car of that caliber would be known on Moparts, and I had to know more about it.
Next Mopar Challenge series is Friday, July 10th, come on out and watch...The local MOPAR guys are good on the tree...Last race I ran a back to back 13.29s on a 13.24 dial in and still got booted out in the second round.
Your Hemi is my screen saver right now....
I will definitely be there on the 10th.
