Question for the Ft Worth Guys.. What all drag racing tracks are up there that does test n tune? I've found Ennis that is is a 1/4 mile and Texas Raceway in Kennedale which is a 1/8 mile. Wanna take the Eb out one weekend to see what it does, since i can actually get traction now.

Ive only been to the 1/4 mile track that was here years ago. Last time i raced there i got a 20.1 quarter mile time in my old 80 F100

Have no clue what good 1/8 mile times are.

16's is very respectful for a 4.6

According to dallas raceway fb they sold the track and its no longer in bussiness. Any idea what the name of the one south of ft worth is?

hopefully the governor looks at the flood damage tomorrow....and declares the area a disaster area....a lot of the county's infrastructure is damaged and at least 4 towns are locked down with no travel in or out due to the rising flood waters.....two towns in Iowa across the border were evacuated... the rain didn't quit until 11 pm tonight with a possibilty of more showers this morning...

and I'm out of town 200 miles away...

ever since I've seen the pics I have been praying that my family stays safe and that the electricty stays on....

Crazy pics 88... hope they stay safe. If Patrick was there he could walk through it and wouldn't even get his chest wet!
