Pictures of my first drag strip racing experience

[DriDed]

I think its pretty much every night.. or atleast every friday and saturday night. you turn onto john young from sand lake (heading away from the Dodge dealership over there) and after you go over a hill there is a couple warehouses on the right, and its in there.

Obviously its illegal.. so go at your own risk, thats why im not taking my car there lol

Haha I ain't taking risks with the tickets and impound fees, I will just go to the race track for the fun.

Good idea. How far is the track from Olympia? and how much is it to get in?

[DriDed]

On Friday nights, if you get there between 6pm-7pm, the price is $10, that includes general admission and drag racing only.

If you head to the track on a day other than Friday, the price is $10 for general admission and $5 for drag racing.

If you do drifting, it is a lot more expensive ($20+$10).


I think the track only opens on Thurs, Fri, and Sat.

The track is not too far (only 15 miles in distance) from Olympia, but if you are heading from there to the track, below are directions from mapquest on how to get there:

*You DON"T need to take the highway to get there, it is easier if you just drive through all local roads.*

are those Starlets I see?? Any times for the Galant VR-4? At least I think its one. I'm sure no one else would drag any galant beside a vr4. This makes me miss being back home even more

I don't know the times for the Galant, but the turbocharged car smoked a lot of the competition there. The car is loud as heck too, makes my ears hurt.
