Don't go -- I repeat -- Don't go -- the sights you see will ruin you and you'll end up with a terrible medical condition called salt fever -- j/k

These are great events -- at the World of Speed in September is when all the VW's go for the 36 horse and big block challenges

I live in pleasant grove and have raced at RMR since i could legally drive,about a decade now. Msvwra will be here once a year, but there is plenty going on at other times. Midnight Drags are great events with 6-8K people in the stands.
I haven't run on the track for a year or so since I work evenings. The facility is one of the nice ones in the area, nice track, good staff for the most part.
