Welcome to Central Florida...
12's must have a very healthy Elky :)
I believe the closest 1/4 mile strip to you is here in O-ville?? Speedworld (http://www.speedworlddragway.com/)
we've been trying to get a monthly thing going here, keep in touch with this forum and you're always invited.

yeah i think an alum head long rod 400 may just dip into the 12s.....
and the closest track is g-ville, ya know...home of the gatornationals. moving to alachua this weekend, so the ride will only be about 10-15 min!!!!

Great to see new people in the area. If your wanting to race your elky you need to come with us. Me and a few other guys live north in lake city; We frequently go to Valdosta Ga to the drag strip there. I've been to both tracks and the G-ville track has nothing on the brand new polished concrete track in Valdosta.

a new track would be sweet...but i think that the ride to GA with 93 octane might be a bit pricey!!!! well hope to have the 400 together soon, if the machine shop will EVER get done.

My two older sisters live in gainsville(both go to school there) If i ever go visit them i wouldn't mind going to the strip, but will be a while before i head that way.
