We were able to complete three rounds of VW racing and two Pro-Stick rounds, the VW classes got to semi finals in all but one class and Pro-Stick got to 13 remaining cars still in the game. Finally about 7 pm a steady rain did us in, we called it a day.

Thanks Scott for your hard work. The Mason Dixon crew gets a tip of the hat for all the work repeatedly drying and re-prepping the track after each rain shower and car oildowns. That was a lot of work and time consuming too. Bill Smith did the invocation and his wife Toni did a fabulous job singing the National Anthem as always!

A good day of racing, nice turnout of racers and crew members, we finished up at 9:05 pm. Sunday  --  June 14th  --  Flag Day This was a Test & Tune day that got underway at 11:30 am, a good turn out too. We did get a rain delay of about a half hour so we did run longer to make up for the down time. We ran two no entry charge $500.00 to win Super Pro and Pro Driver races, Super won by Cory Carper, Jason Day runnerup, Pro driver was won by Jason Deavers over Tony Bonnano. Justin Lesher and his dad Ronnie brought the finally completed S-10 Chevy truck and made several passes, 11.65 @ 115 mph on two runs back to back, what a great father / son project, now they�re having fun! Hope to see everyone this weekend at Mason Dixon Dragway! Saturday  --  June 6th This was the first SBRA points race of the 2020 racing season. A warm and sunny day, 88 degrees and humid but a nice breeze helped keep our racers fairly comfortable during day and evening. We started with our Junior dragsters at 12:30 in the finals it was Eric Bowles getting the win over Harley Ely, Mary Bannister and Cameron Boyd were the semi finalists. The young drivers put on a show, double O and teen lights all during the race, great job by all. Now the big cars, they took the track at 3:00 pm. In Super we had a full field to make the $1,000.00 payout for the winner and it was Lin Bowie in his 4.60 dragster winning over Justin Crider, Andy Dolan and Paul Burruss were the semi racers.

See you at Mason Dixon Dragway!  Saturday  --  May 30th Once again we ran a pre registered Test & Tune event. A nice turnout with a mix of all types of cars and bikes, junior dragsters and junior street racers all making time runs from noon to 5 pm. We also added Gamblers races for Super, Pro Driver racers. A very good day overall. Sunday  --  May 31st  A much bigger turnout of racers with cool air, clear skies and low humidity helped all to lay down fast passes during the entire day. We also ran Gamblers Races for Super, Pro Driver and Junior Dragster towards the end of the day. A really fine showing by all, just a fun day. A big thanks to all that have been with us these first two weeks of racing, everyone has followed directions as to the entire Covid 19 protocol. We finally go to our SBRA races this Sat. June 5th and Sun. June 6th. You must Pre-Register to enter these events. Also a big thanks to the Wachter family and to our staff for doing a great job through this very trying circumstances. We’ll see you this weekend at Mason Dixon Dragway!  Saturday  --  May 23rd Finally….We have gotten the 2020 racing season underway. First off we want to thank all our racers, their crew members, Mason Dixon staff and Elmer and Kathy Wachter for hanging in there during the long delay in getting underway this season due to the Corona virus ordeal. Everyone at the track both days cooperated with the guide lines set down for us to race in as safe manner as possible. Great job to all that participated. Here’s how we ran the weekend. Racers signed up online for either a morning or afternoon session on at Saturday or the one afternoon session on Sunday. We allowed 50 racers each session. We had a great mix of full on race cars, street cars, Junior dragsters, bikes and Jr. Street cars also. The track went from good to excellent very quickly. Ask Bill Smith, his Pro-Stick Pinto ran a personal best 9.55 @ 137 mph two runs back to back. Connor Boyd licensed his Junior Dragster, he drove great both days, got in many laps, his lights got better as the two days wound down, a 16.45 @ 37 mph was his best pass made later on Sunday. Overall an excellent day and yeah the weather was ok, partly cloudy high 60’s, not bad. We finished up at 7 pm. Sunday  --  May 24th A cloudy and cooler day but again, no rain. We started at 11 am. Another mix of cars and bikes, Junior dragsters made many runs today. Was the track good? Kermit Garnett on his turbo Suzuki ran a 4.85 @ 141 mph 1/8 mile pass, Bill Smith again ran quick, a 9.57 @ 137 mph. Lester Holtzapple’s Corvette now runs 9.70’s with a new engine, way quicker than last year. Everyone made many passes and the track worked great as always. We finished up at 4 pm.  Next weekend, we will again do a Test & Tune event on Saturday May 30th  and Sunday May 31st with just one session each day. More details to follow on the website by mid-week. It’s REALLY good to be back!!! See you next weekend at Mason Dixon Dragway!   Saturday  --  Nov. 23rd   We have to say the weather played into this weekend in a big way. When I arrived at the track at 9:30 am it was sunny, high 30's and almost no wind but quickly that changed. As we got ready to kick things off with our Junior dragsters it clouded up and gusty winds moved in and now it  was plainly cold. Temp only hit a high 41 degrees. No doubt that hurt the turnout today.  Now the racing, we had nine hearty Junior Dragster drivers, family and their crews participating. Mary Elizabeth Bannister got the win over Ryan Ely, semi racers were Landon Palmer and Carleigh Forrest. By about 1 PM the big cars took the track. We opted to go with one time run only and go straight to round one. In Super it was a father / daughter final. Steve Whitman won over his daughter Carrie Whitman. Pro Driver had Troy Gerhart over Dave Clinedinst, Mike Rodgers was third. Sportsman was won by Kevin Barron over Mike Fenslau. Finally Trophy had Greg Orris over Mike Fenslau. Of note, John Dickson made the long tow from Rockaway N.J. to run with us in Pro and Sportsman, thanks for racing with us today. We finished up about 3:00 PM. As I left the track it started to rain, good call moving the program along. Right as we were getting close to end we cancelled Sunday's race, another good call, it rained and snowed in the morning, would have taken us out for sure.   Can't believe the 2019 racing season is over. I thinks we'll all miss what we do nine months a year pretty quickly, though a break at the holidays is good. Keep checking our website for the 2020 schedule, it's already coming together. Please be safe in the off season, Happy Holidays to all!
