Fast Fridays - 6/8 - Texas Motorplex drag racing, any car welcome!
Quote:
Texas Motorplex will feature 20 Fast Friday events in 2012, allowing for even the most novice racers to get laps under their belt like the pros! Fast Friday events will be a prime opportunity for participants and fans to rev their motors for several specialty events including the spring NHRDA Texas Diesel Nationals in April, Super Chevy Show and Mega Mopar Action Series’ Mopars at the Motorplex in May, Fun Ford Weekend in September and plenty more.
Fast Friday is designed to not only allow participants valuable track time to prepare for a weekend of competition, but also gives street racers a chance to drive their cars down the famed quarter-mile monster that is Texas Motorplex.
Want to see the view NHRA Funny Car legend and champion has when he lines up to race at Texas Motorplex? You can! If you are a legal driver with a street legal car… you can race at Texas Motorplex.
WHERE: Texas Motorplex, Ennis, Texas. Track is located on Hwy.287, two miles west of Ennis, between Interstates 35 and 45.

TICKETS: Race for just $15, watch for only $10 (children 5 and under are free). Every ticket includes a pit pass.
Pretty much anyone who wants to show up in any car that can pass the most minimal tech inspection can race here, and its a nice facility. The last time I went, I did 15 runs in just over an hour, and could've done even more. It might be more crowded in the summer, but it should still be little-to-no-waiting and there are tons of "regular" cars to play with, its not all 500+ hp monsters.
