There are several test and tune days scattered here and there, but the above are official race events that I have planned for.

I hope to make Union Grove's Tuesday Night Events.. They host a Womens's Only Bracket Series every Tues.. I did pretty good there last year considering I mostly was still trying to tune the lockup and you could never fully guarantee what I was gonna run LOL... best part is even though it's a test and tune night for everyone - women get in and race for free... can't beat that!

****

May
  • Friday 2 - Milan Dragway - Friday Night Heads Up
  • Saturday 18 - Milan Dragway - Drag News Magazine Race
August
  • Friday 1 - Milan Dragway - Friday Nights Heads Up
  • Saturday 2 - Oreily Raceway Park - AMA Prostreet
  • Sunday 3 - Oreily Raceway Park - AMA Prostreet
October
  • Saturday 11 - Summit Motorsports Park - AMA Prostreet
  • Sunday 12 - Summit Motorsports Park - AMA Prostreet
Location of Tracks:

Bryon Dragway = Byron, IL
Grand Bend Motorplex = Grand Bend, Canada
Milan Dragway = Milan, MI
Muncie Dragway = Muncie, IN
O'reilly Raceway Park = Indianapolis, IN
Summit Motorsport Park = Norwalk, OH

Sounds like fun! Wish I could get out to watch you run, but it's a tad too far for me. You going to have some video?
