Should I drive my car to the track?

Thanks for all the replies.

I'm pretty sure I will drive. I have a contingency plan in place with my bud, he already knows what I am doing, he'll be home all day. His house is literally 10 miles from the track. If we assume the worst and I do break, I can have it hauled there and figure out a way to pick it up during the week.

I understand the potential pitfalls of driving this car to the track, racing it and driving it home. Was just looking for others who may be in a similar situation and how they fared. I'm confident the car will make the trip.

BTW, it's the Old Time Drags, haven't missed it for years, one of my favorite events of the summer. Tired of being a spectator.
