  • Air strip racing?

    It seem allot of people race at abandon air strips, sounds like a blast! Does anyone here do this or know of anywhere they do that in IL? These guys are running up to 150mph, how freaking fun would that be!

    The closest standing mile and standing half mile is in Sandhills Nebraska (Arnold Nebraska) (that "the BF" knows of)
    Racing is my life, everything else is just minor details.

                  hahaha... of all places to 'wack the gas' ... IL 39 wouldn't be at the top of my list... radar detector or not, typically crawling with Smokey.

                          There is nothing on I-80 west of I-39 but empty interstate.

                            Yup the Ohio mile (first run in spring 2012). It's at Wilmington Air Park.

                            The limit without a rollbar/cage is 135 mph. A 4 point rollbar is 150 and 175 if it is a 6 point rollbar.

                            Far more strict then the TX or Nebraska Mile

                              Plenty of cops that way, I used to live down there. The state police are at the next exit past 39. But if you turn off route 80 and heads back towards rockford on 39 there are usually no cops, I hit 130 on that stretch in my mustang, but crap with the new laws I wouldn't risk it now. Although I see soccer moms in mini vans and prius's committing felonies everyday and with kids in the car.
