who's going to the ozark blackout this year in rogersville? and who went last year?

 

I went last year.

And ill be going this year.

 

I was there but had a broken arm. I'll be there this year as well if the new track owners have it. Hopefully racing. I've already discussed the new owners with John. Hopefully they will invite him back with the dyno as well.

 

i went last year. i plan on going this year also

 

Maybe we will have a little bigger crowd this year. Mike who are the new owners???

 

well its good to see that there will be some guys there. so are you guys gonna race or go to watch?

 

Doubt I'll race but ill be there, like last year I hope there is a pull close, afterwards. Yes I was there, I won the Dyno, witch was a surprise with my small #s and little turbo

 

i was there last year. i had a blast, didn't do any racing though as i had a sled pull later that night in stotts city. did jump on the dyno though it was fun and look forward to being there this year as well

 

When is it this year? Directions?

 

It will prob be in June like in the past, but like said above, there are new owners, so......

 

Neal, Marty, and Mitch Chance of Neal Chance racing converters have purchased the place. They are calling it Ozark Raceway Park now and have a bunch of plans for the place. They are currently resurfacing the track out to the 1/8 mile mark and will be putting up better lighting in the pits along with other stuff . They usually have it in June to coincide with Brian Thompson's open house at BTS Transmissions in Arkansas. You can find a map at www.ozarkdragstrip.com. They were supposed to have the schedule done this week or early next week.

 

That track have been getting a little rough the last few years, I hope john gets to come down again this year.

 

Never been there, but interested in knowing what it is all about....

 

It's an all day pure diesel track day with a heads up quick 16 class and a bracket class and John Isaac brings his dyno down as well. Last year the track also scheduled a midnight drags after the diesel race so those not interested in going to a pull could continue to race until the wee hours of the morning.

 

I've contacted them to see if they are still going to have the race and what their plans are. They like making a big production out of races it seems so it maybe improved this year. They are going to do an agressive ad campaign for the racetrack on both TV and radio and are trying to get the state to put a sign up on highway 60.
