We only have two drag strips in the UK that are regularly used at least, both are converted airstrips the one I visited is Shakespeare County Raceway which is close to Shakespeare's birthplace of Stratford upon Avon and Santa Pod Raceway a former WW2 USAAF base , both are in the middle of England.
Santa Pod is prepared to a much higher standard and larger events are run there with Top Fuel Dragsters etc and it is built to NHRA specifications and the track is better prepared. Unfortunately it does tend to be much busier on RWYB days and you have to queue for about 1 hour to run the car |

How did you manage any rest living across the street from the 1/8 mile strip ! 6 hour round trips to the track would definitely make for a long day... I've always been a 1/4 mile kind of guy ever since I was a kid. Something about that straight line acceleration makes me salivate. Never wore off :-) Never did like the idea of racing around in circles but road courses are tempting. Have decided to set up my car up for the 1/4 mile while still being able to enjoy driving it around town. aaahhh the best of both worlds ... |
