Exclamation So Cal Dyno & Drag Racing Track...?

Ok, with all the street racing I do, it's not enough for me yet. I wanna take it to the track and get a base of what my car can do. Thing is, what's the best track to go to? Im near california speedway, but there shedule is horriable. I don't wanna go to palmdale because I heard bad things about the track. Is there anywhere else I can go?

Also, im looking to get my car dyno... I have no idea what's the best dynos to go to, but im looking for a good FWD that can also (possibly) hold a meet for sclc.net. Any info would be great.

Thanks.

Nope, those are the only nearby tracks open at the moment....IIRC- there are tracks down near temecula or SD.

Dynos- Tuning Technologies or GT motorsports (dont know if they still have there dyno) are the closests ones.

Palmdale's track is yes not the best track, but if you just want to practice launching, driving all together and get a good idea of what kinda times your car can run palmdale is a good place to do it for mainly the reason that it is a 1/4th track and it's not that busy there even on friday nights. But if you go Weds nights you can get in 30 runs if you really wanted to lol...

i go to palmdale, during winter is good bc the weather is cold of course and its freakin out there so no worries of ur car burning to much, usually the dirt bikers dont ride during winter time out there so they dont kick much dirt from their track over onto LACR side

Proper punctuation is your friend.


If you want a good place to dyno, go to Tuning Technologies in Colton.

The track in Pomona won't allow street racers. In years past I thought they did.
