RX-7 Addict Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Whats the closest strip? A 1/4 strip. Thanks, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nevarmore Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 National Trails is the closest. Norwalk and Dragway 42 are pretty close. Since you have good turning car, Mid-Ohio, Nelson Ledges, and BeaverRun will give you some good twisty road courses to have fun on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desperado Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 WTF????? That took balls to ask! You just move here from Russia or did you just lead a real sheltered life. Trails, then DragWay 42, then Pacemakers in Mt Vernon (1/8 mile) not sure the next one, then Norwalk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RX-7 Addict Posted May 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Thanks for the info. Im somewhat new to columbus. Norwalk and Dragway 42 is a bit far (almost 2 hours) but I will check out National Trails. For those who go, what is Grudge, and what is Street legal drags? Not sure what this means, Im looking for something where I can just run for fun, not bracket racing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Street legal drags (Fridays) is just fun run/time trials. You'll definitely want to go on Fridays. Welcome to Columbus and the site..

Guest BLACKBIRD99 Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 For those who don't know, Norwalk is about 110 miles from Columbus, and about 40 of those miles are 2 lane roads. I'd say Kilkare in Xenia is about as far as Mt Vernon. Possibly even Tri State in Cincy too. Norwalk is easily the best in Ohio but it's a pain in the ass to get to IMO.

KennyFKINPowerz Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Here are most of the tracks in the USA, Canada, Puerto Rico and then some. Listed by state. http://www.staginglight.com/links/trackfinder.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHIEF Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 We have a track in Ohio??? I don't like Kilkare, just because I don't like it at night. It's a little dark. Needs some better lighting IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razorback Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Welcome. I'll probably see you out on Friday night Street Legals. If you have any questions while you're there, come hit me up. I'll probably either be standing near my car or sitting in it while in the staging lanes so feel free to ask if I can help you with anything. smile.gif Welcome to the board.

Thanks for the kind words. I'll prob be there unless there is something early going on at OSU. I see you ran a 12.70 at ~107.. Was this on slicks? Reason I ask is because I trapped 107.5 at Norwalk but I only got 2 runs in and they were both mid 13s. First time drag racing, and I really cant launch. Hoping to break into 12s friday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razorback Posted May 13, 2004 Report Share Posted May 13, 2004 Yes, that 12.70 run was on slicks. 1.70 60'. I'll be there tomorrow (assuming it doesn't rain out again), so maybe I'll see ya there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OGRE Posted May 13, 2004 Report Share Posted May 13, 2004 closest is trails 40 min with good traffic even from hilliard. pacemakers is a little closer than Marion county, but is even time for me living on the west side of town, I guess Pacemakers wouldn't count because you were asking about the 1/8 mile though. I can get to each in a little under an hour. Kilkare and 42 are about equal time away but 42 is more mileage (around 100) mostly highway, kilkare is alot of 2 lane. I get to each in about hour and 15 to 1.5 hour. norwalk farthest but best. Yes i've been to all of them in the past year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miller Posted May 13, 2004 Report Share Posted May 13, 2004 I'd like to go run some drags and meet some of you guys, but my 16's are far to imbarising at this time. :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't you have Thorne's class with me around the same time and I saw you out there at Trails once or twice? And yes, I still go to DeVry. Graduating with the first degree this summer and going back for one more year for a second. You? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
