I’ve never been to one of these but my kids would love it. Is it a family-friendly event?

Thanks for posting this up, didn't know they had this event there. If it doesn't rain we're in.
I do like the races where they drag a boat behind them too. Wish they ran that one.

 

[spectras only]

We have those races here in Penticton.

That was one of the first dates my wife and I went on...

She took me. I'd never heard of that shit before. What a blast! lol

But I just realized I have a memorial service to go to Saturday. I have no idea how long it will last, so I can't plan on going anywhere on Saturday at this point. If it ends early, I'll head over. If not, you guys have a great time.

 

[SoCalDave]

From Dec 2017.

Cool. Keep in touch. Not sure if I can make it or not. (See above)

Used to go every weekend because my Uncle Jim Gilliam raced there

We go at least once a year. My only advice is to buy your tickets ahead online, because they do sell out sometimes. And don't wait until 7:00 pm to get there or you'll have a tough time getting seated.

Thanks, was wondering how long to hold out before I purchase tickets as we have family (military) coming in tonight or tomorrow night that dictates if we go or not.

Thanks SS, think I'll go ahead and purchase the tickets as it's only $67 for 4 adult's and two kids...my grandson will shit his pants once it starts! I know I did going to first of these type of events with my Family in the 60's.

 

[ka0tyk]

Thanks for the heads up. My kiddo is gonna love it.

I was going to ask you if they still had those. Is Saugus Speedway still there? I loved the figure 8 races!

 

[RitcheyRch]

Saugus Speedway is still there and they only do weekly swap meets there now.

Seems to be normal any more. It's not surprising considering how cheap the tickets and parking are. It's a fun night out.

Seriously all that for only $15 and $7 beers?!? I saw a truck drive through a spectra’ish boat and blow it to pieces. Hell yeah!

 

[Times Like These]

Great time at the races tonight. Saw Socaldave and said hello. I’ve been to the waterless boat races in Havasu, these races at Irwindale seemed to step it up a notch.
