Took my whole family for Nostalgia Drags. I loved the classic car show and the old-school dragsters were really fun to watch. My daughters LOVED the noise and excitement of the drag racing and learning how bracket racing works. The nitro funny cars were AWESOME. Low 7 seconds and 215mph in the 1/4 mile with the smells and cackling noise from the nitromethane are a bucket-list level experience.

DA makes this track one of the fastest if not the fastest on the east coast, so if you are into slips and bragging rights, this is your track. Easy...

Pretty far down Elimination and we were told we had a bye, after we let all the cars pass and we were about to make the pass they disqualified us because they said we took to long in getting to the racing lanes and that we had another racer waiting even though we were told we had a bye. And they didnt want to listen to reason not only as we tried to talk to them and see what happened we were cussed at and talked to very badly.
