Well...ok...If you don't like it cool. I have been to a lot of different tracks since the early 90's and I can honestley say that Union Grove was the First Drag Strip I have been too. There is always something that people like and dislike about every track, I find it common. I guess the most convient track is the most important.
I have not been there since the new ownership (a couple of years ago???) but when I was there last it looked like a real DIVE (no offense) hopefully they have fix it up since then.

Tell me something..

Is there still that dip in the right or left lane there??? I remeber some rumor that a dragster loss control there and the driver was serious hurt.

How about the pits...is it paved yet? or still full of gravel?

Shut down area, have they extended it or is it still short?

Like mentioned before I haven't been there in a long time it might be a nice place there now but never needed to go back there.I might go there this year because of the RSD's... but we'll see.

Joliet has a nice race track from a lot of different aspects. A little to far for me though.
US41 is ok to, but the track people seem to be a little rude and I think they are not as down to Earth like some of the the other tracks, maybe I was there on a bad day or something...but I have been there about 4 times and got that feeling everytime. I also heard something like ... US41 is closed from some sort of gov. tax problems??? But could be wrong, it was here say when I heard it.
I know there is another rack track by you is that the one you go to or is it Union Grove?
Anyways good luck with set-up, hope it flys for ya.

they have done a great job at GLD since the new owners came in they redid the whole 1/4 through shut dwon and repaved the staging lanes,the pits and return road as added new stands

now I used to go to byron all the time when I lived in the elgin area and always wondered why my car ran faster there then any other track and I later found out that it runs down hill and it is 10-15ft short

I do go to rt 66 but to watch cause is a pain to get in there they are always packed plus the tech are a pain

there is another track up here its wir but it would be closer for me to go to byron
