arob Posted August 28, 2014 Report Posted August 28, 2014 CC Speedway did this several times years ago.It is a blast to watch! Quote
dancer52 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Posted August 28, 2014 that's just a train race....they had one at SAS Quote
top_shelf_12 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Posted August 28, 2014 Nick you having ideas of clearing out those Monte Carlo's and Caprices now? Quote
texcraig Posted August 28, 2014 Report Posted August 28, 2014 HMP should seriously consider this. Run it the last race of the night, so you will have a week or so to clean up. Fans will stay, drink, eat, etc. to see it. The regular racers that have a LOT of money in their cars can race and NOT WRECK and put on a good show. The fans will get good racing and good wrecking. WHAT A DEAL!! Everyone wins. Quote
HiTech Posted August 28, 2014 Report Posted August 28, 2014 (edited) BEEN THE DRIVER of three train races ...at cc ..fun for the driver and safer . anyone who is not the driver is crazier than i ... it was lalo leal who ran his first laps at cc in my 3rd car .the brake car ...i scared the hell out of him ,wide open with a 440 under the hood .had it won till someone sent lalo and my brother into turn one ..my brother ended up on the wall on top of the car that sent him there . i think lalo left his lip gloss on the glove box ....the other race we ran olds 98 .the poor motor sent the number 7 piston out the back of the car and hit the second car ...was no doubt we were out of the race ......fun fun fun ......

arob Posted August 28, 2014 Report Posted August 28, 2014 I guess I should had watched the whole video! The boat and trailor races at STS were cool to! Quote
Radical Posted August 28, 2014 Report Posted August 28, 2014 They were definitely fun to watch at C.C. Speedway. I only wished I had the opportunity to be in one. Quote
top_shelf_12 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Posted August 28, 2014 I remember one at CC that the boats became targets after they fell off the trailers. Think that was the first time I saw SAFO on a car too. Quote
skipperf Posted August 29, 2014 Report Posted August 29, 2014 I enjoy the train races I have seen on TV, but 1 of my favorite races I think they call skid race. On a FWD eco or mini stock, skids made from old hoods are mounted to the rear wheels. I think they would call that a loose condition. This topic reminds me of MaryAnn's early crash fests at THR. Loved those. Skipper Quote
hardheadted Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 Looks like a ton of crazy fun!! I think the skid race is a great idea!! Quote
Flyin34 Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 We did a few of those train races. Ol Continental 460 can pull a train!! They were a blast!! Quote
