Come on out and drag race amongst friends and watch the Quick 4 Corvettes battle it out in what looks to be a full sub 10 second field.

First timers are welcome.

All Corvettes welcome

You C5 folks have your stuff(lack of a better word) together for sure.
It's cool to read on the drag racing section the amazing performance of those street legal cars. There is a group of C3 owners on the forum shooting for the tens. Perhaps some day there will be a C3 vs. C5 race. I would make the long haul for that one.

How far is the airport from there, I want to fly in but I don't know if I can walk to the races from there or do I have to take a taxi?

Edit: Looks like thunderstorms and generally crappy weather heading my way overnight. Oh well, it was nice to think about flying in. :nonod: :mad
