I Feel A Need... For Speed!


I was listening to the radio yesterday when I heard a commercial about open drag racing this Friday night at Texas Motor Speedway. I love open drags! I haven't been to one in ages. Unfortunately, I have to work (as usual) and can't make it.

The races are sponsored by Scion so I'm sure there will be tons of small cars there. Altho I'm more of a big car, big engine kinda guy I can't help but think how may heads would be spinning if I rolled up in my Carry!

Do not judge a book by it's cover. Yes, it's tiny and only has a 660 cc engine. But it has impressive acceleration and a top speed near 80mph. The heats are going to be set by class and I'm pretty sure I'd be the only one in my class. You don't have to explain all that when you show everyone your trophy from TMS!

Also on the local racing newsfront, Boyd Raceway will be hosting a huge Bullring Blowout on Friday night. If you've never watched live dirt track racing, I highly recommend attending. There will be IMCA Modified, Hobby Stock, Stock, Sport Mod and Mini Stock races. There's a huge fireworks show following the racing. Fun for the whole family.
