I wanna run mine! Are drag strip rules the same in canada as the US? If u relocate your batt do u have to put a kill switch on the bumper? The strip I go to is verry strict bc they are a nhra strip.

Hard to say.Originally posted by 1988festivazoom View Post
They say on the website that their tech uses NHRA spec, but I've seen them let a few minor things go on the Friday nights.
Granted, I've also seen them nitpick on a bunch of details. But they rarely send guys home.Comment

Doesn't go much into detail. They even have and autocross comp on Friday nights too!

I am going to be doing the same as last year, driving to Radium Hot Springs after the meet. I may camp or I may just motel this year. The mosquitos were NUTS last year. Aaron and Mike came along last time and we had a blast. It also is nice because (at least for us) we were that much closer to home for the drive back.

I think im also going to take monday off as well. Taker easy on the way back. There is a place in Creston that makes the BEST perogies. And I wouldnt mind touring the Kokanee brewery again.
We could take the #3 Hwy back this year. More scenic, cool stops and most importantly its very curvy.

I totally thought of another cool thing to do on the way back. In the town of Oliver there is a cool little river that is popular to float down. In the heat of the okanogan summer it's great.
