Anyone that is attending the carlise ford nationals going to beaver springs dragway Friday night? I was thinking I might come to carlise on Saturday, thought maybe we could get some people to go to the track Friday night.

I looked at the schedule, looks like test and tune Friday night. I have never raced there though. Cecil county dragway, and maple grove are closer to me.
I see you are from lancaster, I live in Mountville, but I am from Lancaster

I will ask the group I'm staying with, to see if they want to go up to Beaver Springs.  Takes about 1.5hrs to get up there.  Friday is when I have always run.  There are 3 classes.  True Street, which I run.  Modified Street and Outlaw.  We run a .500 PRO tree.  So its all Yellow and then green.  Its a good time.  Also that night is my towns Top Ten list race.  So its up to you guys.  Be warning, you car will be plastered with bugs till you get home.

Don't see how that's possible when it's 1-1/2 from me. But I didn't google it

So do we have any definite people that will go Friday night? Bamsho... do they do street racing all night? Or is it some sort of an organized race? Down at Cecil on fridays it's open from 6-10... run what u brung.. nothing but your ego on the line... I know you do a lot of the actual organized races.

Yes Rich and Kevin Dostie are in to go.  Kinda coordinating between here, Facebook,  and Shoforum.  Im going too.  So that will make more.  Maybe talking with giys there, we could get more.  Open time shots are from 5 till 7, then qualifying  time shots then eliminations.  But its a good time.  Would love to see a bunch of SHO's go, esp since some of you are fsster than mine.

So we all can race as long as we keep winning after 7pm? Is it bracket racing? Only racing I have ever done was just for fun

Yes its bracket racing  and yep you win you keep going.  I'll help everyone out, since I know all the competition.

Does it get crowded on Friday nights?

Some Friday's  it is real busy, and some Friday nights it's  not.  I will need to look at the schedule to see what's  going on that weekend.
 
For w/e it's worth, I received my official credentials and entry passes, etc. for this year's 2017 Ford National's event.

Looks like the Taurus' have been placed at the very front of the "Yellow Field".

Here is an official map of this year's layout......



Getting excited as the event is drawing closer and closer.

I have confirmed hotel reservations respectively.

See everyone in a couple of weeks!!

Update guys.  BSD for next Friday night, may be out.  They had a real bad night last night, one wreck, couple blown motors.  So it took them to the midnight curfew and they didn't get all the elimination rounds in.  I was told they want to finish up last night, next Friday night and run the regular Friday night.  So may not get many runs in.  Just heads up.

I'll toss this out there once again.....

Anyone desiring to caravan to Carlisle, I plan on leaving sometime between 4am & 5am (Thursday morning). According to Google Maps, it's a 10hr drive or so (not accounting for any potty breaks/pit stops, etc. I'd like to arrive Thursday afternoon sometime.

I will be getting on I-80 from I-355.

Anyone coming West of Chicago, and heading East, LMK.

Likewise, anyone East of Chicago, heading East, LMK as well. Perhaps we can coordinate.

Cell phone available via PM for those interested.
