Lebanon Valley Dragway is a pretty good track, I ran up there a couple of times with my 87 GXE (16.8) and plan on running with my '98 SE tomorrow. Haven't seen too many Maxima's up there, love to see more.

Shugarhi, I am going tonight (weather permitting), we may get T-Storms...it is all buffed out and ready to go. Should be a blast, although the lines may be long...

Went there last night, only saw one Maxima run (think it was a 97 SE, was running 15.3x's), not a lot of rice there, but there were quite a few 5.0 Mustangs. The conditions weren't that good, they said it was the equivalent of running at 3900 feet above sea level. Will probably be going there most wednesdays, hope to get my tranny problem sorted out so I can give it a few runs.

Rudy...That was me, best was a 15.33. It was incredibly hot on the track, most guys were off between .2 and .3 seconds from what they normally run. This was my first time with this car and setup, so I wasn't too unhappy. You were right, there were tons of Mustangs. Y-pipe is in the mail, so hopefully I will break the 15.00 mark next time. It is a good track, it would be great to see more representation up there...

Lebanon Valley

How much is it to run there? Can anyone run?

Does anyone have a website with information about the tracks in NY? Lebanon Valley Dragway is the only one I've heard of, but there's gotta be more... right?
