Your lucky to live that close to that many good tracks, hosting big races.

Re: IHRA Nitro Jam Crandall,TEXAS
 

I've known about it for awhile.And they had a race scheduled for last year that never came about.
But some guys I talked to while stopping in Palestine knew nothing about the track. Both said they raced so I took their word.
Maybe Billy Meyer needs to call Jim Weinert !! I'm tired of seeing cars crash!

Re: IHRA Nitro Jam Crandall,TEXAS
 

Their schedule shows a BUNCH of Test & Tune days.With some TEXAS True 10.5.,TEXAS Outlaw back half,KOTH,Top Sportsman & ProMod thrown in. Apparently no brackets or Class racing. I know this is subject to change and might not be complete. At least it's a NEW track in a good market and very welcome. I am surprised there hasn't been any local new coverage in the area.But motorsports are in the "back of the bus" unless it's NASCAR in this area. :-(

I live 20 miles from the new track, and I am excited... just wish my car would be ready. I will be there to support even as a fan if thats all I can do. Went by a few weeks ago, and there is A LOT of concrete. Weather has been a mess here, lots of rain... lots of rain! Heard they had to redo some of the starting line, but hopefully all will be ready in time for the show! East TX and the area has lost some tracks in last couple of years, so I am hoping for a good show, and good advertisement. I have heard a little, but not a lot yet. Would love to see them put on something like Baton Rouge did, with that much support. I know Topeka will probably hurt some, but we just need to all work together for the best.

Would love to find a ride, if anyone knows of a car.

Danny W. Look forward to seeing you. Been a while.

So why dont you go talk to the promoter and try to get a gamblers race going or a stock SS combo. Do it 100% payback where he will lose no money and see how it goes. If you need suggestions on a stock ss combo pm me.

Re: IHRA Nitro Jam Crandall,TEXAS
 

The track phone number is (972)474-2600 and I've called often in recent weeks to get updates. Only once was I able to get someone on the phone and they were frustrated with being set back by the uncontrollable weather circumstances. As of yesterday, they now have a recorded message announcing an official open date for test-and-tune on May 14th, 1 week from today, FREE admission to everyone including race cars. I'll be there (weather permitting) trying out my new stocker .. hope most of you local folks can make it.

I would bet few track owners know this fact:
According to Nitro Joe's stats there are 210 SS and 297 stockers that have raced at least once in Div 4 in the last three years. Time for some D 4 Stock/SS combo's or a S/SS tour/series.
