What ever you do, DON'T BLINK! 'cause we be carrying some SERIOUS mph's on the big end. I'm going to have Denny so deep in this he won't want to go to the track. It's a bird, it's a plane, no it's Denny turnin' on another win lamp!! Too easy.

deadmoneydenny- Sharks have a week dedicated to him.
He is the life of parties he has never attended
If he we’re to punch you in the face, you’d have to fight off the urge to thank him.
Chuck Norris has a poster of HIM on the wall. He secretly wishes it was autographed.
It is said he can talk to animals.

Oh, so you've heard of him? I've heard he can speak Russian....................in Portuguese!
Maybe Jeremy will chime in and let us know what it's like to personally know a racing god!
Back on topic, bikes rock & everything else sucks.

A couple years ago I ran a guy on a bike at CCD and when I went by him through the lights with the chute out he thought it was gonna suck him in and he said he would never run a dragster again.

It's short compared to gateway. just got on google earth and measured. this isn't exact but probably within 10'. midstate is 1254', coles county is 1242, and benton is tough to measure but i am coming up with it being the shortest of the 3. coles seems short because all you can see is the top of the hill. there is shutdown after that. plus, going uphill helps slow you down. I will say that I wouldn't drive a hardtail car on that track due to the transition at the finish line to uphill. seems to make the hardtail cars bounce.

midstate shutdown might be 1300' long but no more. that's being very generous. get on your favorite imagery site and check for yourself. I really am not a midstate hater. just want people to make informed decisions with all the facts.

Not to mention the fact that if there is a stiff wind from the north it blows sand onto the shut down area and it's like stopping on glass..

I'm looking forward to racing there a couple of times this season. Unfortunately I will not be able to commit myself to racing one points series at one track as I have done in the past. Got too many irons in the fire for that.
