We went to Atco every Friday night in high school. Usually 20 cars deep cruising there. Run what you brung, you parked cars right at the fence watching racing and drinking beer
I've gone twice. Once on a Sunday late in the season (Nov ? ) and left around 2:30 PM without getting a single run in.
The other time went on a Tues evening and brought my dinner. Got one pass in around 9:30 PM and estimated I might get another before closing. Or might not. Didn't feel lucky and went home.
Might do better paying to race (rather than just running for time) as I *think* you usually get a second shot if you lose in the first round of gamblers, or at least get one test run before race. I think thats how it was at Island and E-town. Once in a while we did that. But usually I had my coleage from work drive. He was much better in reaction time and getting the car off the line (had run stock eliminator upo until a few years before).
