NMRA Opening Week

[7upstang91]

Just wondering if anyone is going to the NMRA opening weekend? I'll be there on the 6th of March. It would be nice to meet anyone if they are going. Should be fun as if has for the past couple years for me. Its in Brandenton, Florida. At Desoto Raceway??Something like that.

i want be at that one but i am going to the one in georgia.

went to the track today and there was alot of stangs there getting ready for the open day. theres around 10 or so there running getting ready. some very quick cars to.
there was this one very nice looking hatch. i wish i would have got the guys name but i loved that car.
it was a nice looking blue with some chrome fr500's on it. was running mand h on the back. also was running slicks for some of the passes. not sure what the motor was in it but did have a vortech s/c on it. ran a 9.9xx on slicks and a 10.xxx on radials. very nice guy, but he was busy with car so i didn't get to talk to him like i wanted to.

Which week is that? College girls? I need to get my plane ticket.

Bowling Green is a great time. Nothing like waiting in line for 45 minutes with thousands of Stangs doing burnouts the whole time back that two lane road.

sept 30 - oct 3rd this year

there already getting me excited again just reading about it.

For our final stop of the Keystone Automotive NMRA Ford Nationals, we head to the rolling hills of Bowling Green, Kentucky. Beech Bend Raceway will again be home to our World Finals event. As the final event, this is not only one of the NMRA's oldest, but hands down the largest. With over 400 heads-up race cars attending last year, you can expect close to 500 this year. 5.0 Mustang will also host its awesome King of the Street competition where 16 of the best all-around Mustangs shoot for the coveted title! And for those of you with more than just racing in mind, the World Finals features one of our largest car shows, swap meets and vendor midways. So come down to Beech Bend Raceway for an action-packed all-Ford extravaganza and watch the season's championships be decided on the strip!
