Music City Raceway is another nostalgic trip back in time for me. The track celebrated its 50th Anniversary in 2008, and back in the early days it was known as Union Hill Dragstrip, or just “The Hill”. I went there several times when I was young so going again back brings back a lot of happy memories.
Southern Survival Shootout – September 24, 2016
It was hot today! For the third day of fall it was REALLY hot. As in about 93° hot! But this should be the last time for a little while. Even though we inevitably have a temperature “Surge” in mid to late October the temperatures this coming week are forecast to be in the mid 70’s, and that will be a welcome change! |

Nostalgia Funny Cars and NHRA Drag Racing – July 9, 2016
Any time Funny Cars are at a local track so am I! 2016 is the 50th “Golden” Anniversary of the introduction of Funny Cars in the mid-1960’s, and I’ve loved them since I first saw a pitcure of one in Hot Rod Magazine as a kid. |

Drag Racing – July 2, 2016Despite being a hot and humid July afternoon I headed for Music City Raceway to watch the action for a while. Also, despite it being a “National Dragster Challenge” weekend, there didn’t seem to be a lot of cars there, although it’s possible that some more came in after I left. Eliminations started at 6:00pm and I got hot and tired about 5:00pm and headed for home. |

Super Pro Racing – April 16, 2016
Music City Raceway had a $5000 Super Pro race today and I had to head up that way and watch for a while. And, of course, grab a few photographs. |

Saturday NHRA Racing – March 26, 2016What a gorgeous days! It was pretty cool early, 36° to be exact, but it warmed up about mid-morning and there wasn’t a cloud in the sky. In other words a perfect day to go to a race track! |

Saturday NHRA Racing – March 5, 2016It’s been a long winter without much racing going on. I went to Arizona last week for the NHRA CarQuest Nationals but I’m ready for some local weekend racing to. Thankfully today was the opening race at Music City Raceway so I got my fix for the week ;) |
