How long is your racing season?
 
Ours up here in Michigan at US 131 is usually from the first weekend in May till the middle of September.

Man it's gonna be a long winter. :(

traysvega 09-25-2010 04:06 PM

End of March til usually 2nd week in Nov. weather permitting.

I don't race..I just talk about it on the internet. :lol:


My test and tune/ donate to everyone elses prize money season goes from april to October.

You think your winter is long my car has been parked for two years.Talk about cabin fever.

In 2008 we had a huge flood and I only got to go 1 time.In 2009 I was laid off some during the summer and this year we moved and I had no garage to work out of...Garage is built now just not finished.Hopefully next year I'll get to go at least every other week....if I can either get the car legal to run what it runs or find an outlaw track close enough to go to.

Here in La. it's yr. around at some tracks, also some tracks in Ms. yr. around, north Ms. feb. until dec. I did get some good news today, Twin Cities which was closed for 2010 has a new lessor, and promises to be open in 2011. I just hope he runs a better program than the last lessor.

Zip.

From late February to December :shock: In the south you can almost always find somewhere. I can go to Florida and race somewhere every in any month.
That's also a part of what's killing mud racing racing. People get burnt out if you do the same thing to much.
