I’m really not sure. I usually get there and when I drive up to the parking booth, I’ll tell them what I wanna do. They should ask you what you wanna do. Spectator,Racer,show,All.. And I Usually go from there.:)
Thanks, never been to Bandimere, my stress level just went down 100 points!:thumbsup:

Actually people showing/racing enter through a different entrance from the road. This leads to the booth where you pay to show or race or both.

If your just coming to spectate, you drive in the spectator entrance, park somewhere in the huge lot, and walk up to the spectator ticket booth, buy a ticket and walk in.
 
So did I do the right thing by bugging out?
I got 50 to 100 raindrops on me.

And yes if you drive fast enough the drops don't hit you.

It was a pleasure meeting you all, next time I'll socialize more, I was a bit overwhelmed, my first drag race of any kind.
My daughter is HOOKED! She wants to drag race now. Not sure her 96 Jeep Grand Cherokee with full time 4WD and a 318 will cut it for her.

David thanks for nudging me to go:thankyou:

It wasn’t to bad.. The rain did worry me as well. I was kinda disappointed in my times. I was having fuel issues and couldn’t get faster than 16s and 17s :-( ohh well.. guess I’ll have to go Wednesday Nights!!
 
I have video of these two runs. If you recognise I can email to you. Pm me if interested

Put a new top on your Dart and go racing. Be a good little bracket car.
 
I talked to Bandimere about convertible with top down and they said go for it. I just have to add an overflow bottle.

18.016s @72 mph, 1/4 mile
per Trackaddict app. Don't know how accurate it is.

273 2bbl 150,000 on the last rebuild.
One cyl is at 120 psi dry the others are between 107 and 110 dry iirc.

For sure next year.

Maybe I'll take off a Wednesday and get the embarrassment over before next year. (red lighting, not staging correctly, only being 1/2 way down the track when the other lane has already returned for another run):steering:

It’s a lot of fun!!! And who cares about how fast it is. It’s all about having a good time. If you go on a Wednesday, let me know I’ll go too. My car has a 383 and I was only running 16s and I’m fine with that. That’s why I like bracket racing.
 
Top down might have been for Sunday. They always made me put the top up. I always tell people, doesn't matter if you win or loose, it's the best seat in the house. It doesn't matter if it runs 18-19 seconds, it goes by in a snap of your fingers.

I emailed the track a number of months ago asking and mentioned that the top is in really bad shape. They said no prob. I also mentioned it probably wouldn't get over 75 in the 1/4, might have had something to do with it.
