dragstrip near LA, CA?

[Chori]

can anyone tell me where the nearest dragstrip is? preferably one with a 1/4 mile track?

from Los Angeles i have directions to one... LACR. take the 405 north to the 5 north to the 14 north... off at Angeles Crest Hwy/Pearblossom Hwy exit and follow the road to the track, approx. 5 miles... LACR is 1/4...


there's also Fontana and Irwindale... i don't have directions to those...
i think Fontana and Irwindale are 1/8... someone will correct me if i'm wrong.




hope i helped.

Fontana is 1/4 mi., but is under construction right now.
Irwindale is 1/8 mi.--I'll be there Thursday
LACR (Palmdale) is quite a bit further from L.A., and the altitude is WAY higher, and there's the dust, wind, extreme temperature swings..........I used to race there a lot, but I'm too old to put up with that stuff!
Besides, I'm the semi-almost official like kinda sorta regular photographer at Irwindale now.

I guess about what I'm worth to them---NUTTIN!
Free admission to all events and my tech card to race each week.

when you going to get the old one back in?

I'm still trying to decide what block to run-all the pistons on the drivers side hit the head pretty good, and I think it's just the pistons rocking in the sloppy bores, so I need a block. I should have bought the aftermarket one when I could get it for $800--more than double now!
