I think after Scott Kalitta got killed I kinda doubt you'll see a new facility any longer than 1000'. Wave of the future whether anyone likes it or not

While cool and all, I won't be driving all the way up there to race 1000' drags.

Hell!! I will just for the 700 foot altitude if nothing else.

It would definitely be an over-nighter. Good excuse to party I guess. :partydance::partydance::partygrnhat::partydance::partydance:

I just pulled out a timeslip from Speedworld in Nov. Here's me 1000' and 1/4 times.... 1000'ET 10.34 @ 106.3mph 1/4 et 12.34 @ 117.1mph While not my best 12.21 1/4 it's close enough. Who else has times to compare? I knew the wide body looked fast, 10 second car baby :lol

Probably true and a real bummer. It's rare enough to find someone who has a good grasp of 1/4 mile times; having to mix in 1k ft times will make it even worse.

Okay!

I found a 12.07 time slip @ ¼ mile.

Shows a 10.02 @ 1000’.

Damn! But still right behind you with a 9.0149 @ 114.21 at the 1000'. Same run netted a 6.9699 @ an identical 100.81 at the 1/8th mark.
