Default Pontiac adventures day at Hillsboro Dragaway

A buddy saw this on Facebook tonight. Hillsboro drag strip is a new,small, 1/8 mile strip in my area. They’re trying to get this track established, so I plan to go even though I haven’t had time for the track the last few years. Maybe it’s time I go back.

We'll be down in Hillsboro on Feb 3rd for Chris Kroeze/Derek Jones concert at the Hillsboro Brewing Company - meeting up with our daughter (who lives in Madison) and some of her friends.

The next day she'll get her birthday present:

Nice present!
I’m up there about once a month, as my wife has a couple siblings there, and my son also plays against the nephews in sports. . Never been to the brewery, but we do love eating at Beezers. My BIL and SIL own the flooring store right in front of Beezers.

I’m not sure they have a phone number. Google Hillsboro drag away. I don’t see a number listed on their FB page.

Was just at this track for muscle car adventures this past weekend in my foxbody. Really neat little track.

Thanks for reminding me!
I totally forgot about this, as I posted it last winter. I plan on bringing the GTO up there. Still not sure if I’m making any passes as I’ve kind of set it up more for cruising this past year.
