I've been meaning to check out that track.
I'm not sure the wife will let me out of the house yet, but it might be a possibility.

From Delmont, you're looking at ~90 minutes.

Take the turnpike into Ohio. Get off at the second exit, Route 7. Route 7 south, to I *think* the first light, should be Route 165, turn right. Go the next light, turn right onto Route 164. Follow that like 6-7 miles, Quaker will be on the left.

You'll like it much better than prp. Much nicer track, better staff, and way cheaper prices.

Awesome! The Danger Ranger is going to be there :)
It's not a bad track at all! I went the same time at PRP in my blue srt last year, one week later, so that being said I cant say for sure if it is a slower track.

Here's a list so far!
1. BOOSTINSRT
2. Orange 500
3. Jesshwarren
4. 1LOUDSVT ??
5. CST 03 ??

went 13.1@105 all day long at Quaker, went to PRP after and went 12.8's@108 all day...

Def a slower track, but a much much nicer facility, and much better owners.

I would come out, but I got alot of work to do tonight.

The track worked well lastnight. I went 11.56 with only 10 lbs of boost.

I'll agree with that! 11.89 for me, and a bunch of 12.1 passes! Also a 12.30 on drag radials! Still trying to work all of the bugs out of my car!

Damn Brewey, that is sweet and to think you knocked off 4 tenths from your previous best run all because of the cooler air.... Damn i should have gone i might have gone 11:50s or 60's

I don't think I'll be back out there this year. I need to do some more test and tune running on the truck. I run at Lucky drag city for that and if the weather holds out this weekend will be the last for this year. You can run as many runs as needed no waiting in line ;) http://www.luckydragcity.com/

I've never heard of that track and i'm in Erie a couple times a year. Is it 1/8th or 1/4 mile? I'd like to go there sometime.
