    OMG.....thats a nice drift you did there! What did Gabe have to say about that?

    Yes. CR had to promise never to race there when they built (actually converted) it. It’s a shame Solo can’s even rent it.

    The loud cars were part of the reason the dragstrip's not there anymore.

    3 miles?! Come on down one day and I'll give you a royal tour!
