I am like 15 min from Sunset. Its a crappy 1/8 mile with grass growing up through it. People still go there though. alot of the local ricers frequent it.

Quaker is for sale again. I am hoping Summit buys that also and fixes the uphill part. The facility is nice and wouldnt need much. I still like the place and it is my home track regardless of how slow it is

Really? thats awesome ... its my dad's favorite track... he's gone there for as long as I can remember (im 22.. he's 48)... Its fun to go to just to have a good time not to really see what your car can do.

After seein you guys goin to Quaker makes me finally want to make the trip out and see how my car does!

ATCO is faster then Norwalk, I got a dollar on that

Quaker is slow as ****, I ran 3 times there in 3 weeks in the opening of 2008, 13.1 @ 105 with a 1.95 60' on street tires constantly, went to Pittsburgh Raceway Park after and went 12.80@108

Sorry to interrupt the convo here, lol. Great run OP! That's a mind blow that you pulled a 14 flat within only 2 runs. I see consistent 13's in your future. Congrats.
