    I haven't raced at Denton "aka Northstar" since around 2003 before they did a lot of the current improvements and other than the long drive and shitty entrance I thought it was ok. I haven't run at Ennis since around the same time when I took the T/A down to test a new PCM tune and had to wait in line for nearly an hour behind a parking lot full of Accords and Civics that ran 17's or worse. In 3 hours of being there I made a grand total of 2 low 13 passes there...hardly worth the fee and drive. Maybe they've changed since...but back then I had a lot more fun at Kennedale, Denton or even CEDAR CREEK. At least at Cedar Creek you can watch people race souped up tractors, lawnmowers..hell if it has wheels they'll let you run it.

        I prefer Yellow Belly over most of the tracks here now! Its one of the few tracks where you can get more then 3 runs in a 4 hour period!

        Seb's high class.
        He'll mow your grass.
        He'll kick your ass.
        And while his kidney stones pass,
        He'll piss in a glass!

          Only during daylight, once the sun goes down you can wait all night to make a pass with all the shananigans going on.

            Hell, I could have hot lapped my car a lot of nights.

              However, if you can hookup at either one of those tracks, you can hook up anywhere.
              Did the Cedar Creek thing a few times. Won a few bucks. After watching a guy get his leg broke due to a car without a neutral safety switch, pinning him between two cars which he owned both, I kind of quit going to those tracks.
              Some cars and a bike...

              Some say... they have been raced, some a lot

                  x2! You can take your car out there anytime and get pass after pass in! Just not lane prep

                    They just cancelled the test and tune for today that has been on their schedule. This place is still a joke.

                      man, that brings back some memories. I started going to PH back in 95 when it was pretty much an air strip and not much else...no barricades, no bleachers, no clocks, and a make shift tree....I remember how big a deal it was for them to FINALLY get a timing system after about 2 years...That place has really come a long way...

                            I'm sure all of the details will come out soon. It will be a good year of racing around here.

                              Sold to a good guy and I figure there will be improvements to the track.
