Ive been making passes there since the night they opened, nice track for sure. I was also there this weekend for the National event, great time, boy there sure are a "LOT" of complaints from the home owners near by, exp. after the first round of Top Fuel...

Im about 5 miles from the track, not to loud where Im at, I imagine the people that live across the street from the track hear it pretty good though.

I suppose it depends on the direction of the wind, Im 7 miles but only prob. 4-5 as a crow flies and can hear it perfect with a South or West breese. I bet you really hear the roundy round guys now every Fri. night huh? The tracks pretty nice My best e.t. there so far is a 6.34 but had to lift for a second on that pass due to traction at the 3rd gear change. Its coming around, all new tracks need time to get rubber bed into the concrete surface.

Yeah, on Fri night it gets loud when they get out there, I can imagine how loud it is at the houses right across 175. I dont mind it though, I heard they moved the dirt track (Thunderbird) there also?
