it was a blast the first time and should be out of control crazy great the second time. Iv been to I think every O.D.B.A and D.S.R.A race site since the early 1990' and this place is the best I have been to built for drag racing. It is great for spectator and racers alike. And with 40 grand up for grabs and several months for everybody to make plans nobody that has a fast boat should not miss this one.

Thanks for the info Craig! Do you have any idea about how far the camp grounds are from the race sight?

The ONLY downside as far as spectators go are 1). No coolers allowed (beers are $5 each), and 2). No canopies allowed.

Other than that, it's awesome.
