Maybe this thread should be moved to the V-drive forums where they know about Drag Racing......J/K:D

I think it's hard to beat "Smokin in the Cove" in Arkansas. Beautiful spot, and a little closer to you.

Try finding out some info about the Lakefest drags in Marble Falls TX. It is a lot closer to you than California.

I've gone to the Nitro Nationals for the last three years and its a great race. The party in Red Bluff the night before the race is fun too.
We'll be going again this year.

My vote is for Red Bluff! Like Unchained said, the Streets of Fire in town the night before is fun. And the event itself is just awesome.
Maybe I'll see you there this year Unchained!
