OK gang, its time for some downhome fun at the 3rd installment of the 2011 NitroPlate Combo series at the New Jackson [Tn] Dragway.
So far the track has shown tons of promise with the class cars. To date this year: -Matt Hoover has ran -.90 under his NHRA index and says he's ran better times in his record holding SS/TC Chevy S 10 here than he ever has at Bowling Green. - Alex Owens killer M/SA was dialed -.80 under his NHRA index during the last event. -Amy Faulk was dialed -.72 under her index in a lane that had trans fluid dumped on it from start to finish less than two hours prior. [She went to the semis that night] -Kenny Bomar, runner up at the big $5,000-to win Combo at Bowling Green, has his stick car with the front bumper 3 feet in the air. -About a dozen cars have ran better here than the current IHRA record or minimum. [How bout a record run soon ya'll?] So here's a thought: Wanna find out if you're ready for Indy, then go to Bowling Green. Don't wanna wait until one week before the biggest race of the year, come on over to Jackson! Then you'll know for sure if your ready for one of the biggest points meets of the year followed by the Grand Daddy of them all. Why not turn your two week pilgrimage to Indy into a 3 week marathon complete with down-home, Saturday night, under the lights fun! The track features a brand new concrete burnout box followed by a 285-foot laser leveled concrete launch pad. New expanded pits feature fresh asphalt laid just this week. So whose gonna be there to take the guaranteed $1,000 to win purse? And as the Announcer for the night, I get the honor of calling a combo meet for the first time since 1993 at Music City. I can still here those small block stick cars in my sleep! Oh and help a guy out please, bring a little cheat sheet on your car/driver. Like: Engine size/HP rating, accomplishments like Nat'l/Div event wins, former record holder, Div Champ etc. Its a chance to brag on yourself a little bit! Gates open at 3 ct, time trials start at 5 ct. Entry only $50 Here's a link to the Weather Channel's website with local forecast. http://www.weather.com/weather/today...rchbox_localwx Track's address for your GPS 79 Ranger Road Jackson, Tn. 38301 731-427-5536 David Glidewell Track Manager Personal Cell 662-212-3516 Driving directions from I-40 Take I-40 to exit 85 headed south, left at the 3rd light [N. Parkway] Left at the dead end [Paul Coffman Dr.] Left at four way stop [Beech Bluff Rd] 6 miles to the sign on Ranger Road It's roll call time yall!!! From the Combo pits, Glynn |
