i like the index idea too! and as for sunshine, the grounds may not be in great shape but they keep the track surface in good shape tho. i guess anyone that thinks this track is in bad shape needs to go to lakeland drag strip, then you'll love sunshine! lol
also anytime would be great, maybe week nite might be good since all the other events are on the weekends. also day events durring the summer heat are total fail! lol

maybe try getting your car to work better than blaiming the track

somethings funny with the lights at the end of lakeland..
but if that track had been taken care of it would be a very good track... it was holding national events and rivaling gainsville back in the 60's and 70's when it was a 1/4.... then the owners got greedy sold off the back half and made the track too short.

roy, the owner, is a good friend of mine and i love him to death, but he's tight as hell and wont spend a dime on the track as long as people keep coming and the money flows in! lol
also the track is a lil shorter at lakeland, the traps arent as far down the track and that's where you lil better times come from.

first off, i'm not blaming any track for anything!!! my car runs great at all the tracks around here and throuhout the southeast!!! i was stating a fact, the track surface is in very bad shape at lakeland!

he's always been that way, he likes the mud pit better anyway...

never said the et/60ft was off just said the lights are funny.
no big deal to me personally, if lakeland is taken care of it still can be a good track. just wish they wouldn't of sold the back half back in the day.

i never said the track can't work... i've been there plenty of times. when it works it works well... when it doesn't it doesn't.
