It was cool the one time I went, but $20 for one race, screw that.  
I paid $13 for 3 races at Adventure Speedway and have way more fun there.

I thought by now he would drop his prices.

But hey, if he’s getting people there, oh well.  
Fun carts, but not worth the $$$ IMHO

BTW, not meant as a threadcrap, just suprised people still go there.

ok some of you guys cannot read at all. its $200 per RACE **R**. it runs from Oct. 13-early December. depending on how early in december is, thats 8-9 races. by my math, thats about $25 per night of racing, for 48 laps a night.

I’m in a league with about 25 others, all of us work togther. Ours is 8 sessions, we race once a month (so 8 months total). We negotiated a hell of a deal paying $120 for the whole thing. Breaks down like this:

\*8 minute qualifying time trials  
\*B main event of 25 laps  
\*A main event of 35 laps (winner from B advances to A)

We do points as well, and each race day is different with how you qualify…sometimes fastest qualifiers on pole, sometimes fastest at the back, another one is either pick your car or pick your starting position. It breaks it up nicely and keeps competition going on.

So far, I’ve managed a best of 23.817, and I’m 180 lbs:)

With the right group of people, the AJ’s league is definitely a good time.

Now that is a fair rate for a league. I’d be up for that.

I’d like to point out that with the radar gun we brought one day no car went over 31 mph…still a fun time though.

$1 if you lose the free one they give you at the beginning of the league…and you don’t _need_ one, it’s just a little more sanitary for when using a helmet that gets whored out.
