View full event details here and RSVP if you're Going

I plan on being there and the event is absolutely a must for Mustang Trackhorses in the Midwest. With a repaved track about 3 years ago, times are 2-3 seconds faster than in years past. If it has been a 4-5 years since you have been there the changes are fantastic with new garages, condos, etc. in addition to the lovely asphalt!

We are changing up our plans and will be in attendance again this year.

Looking forward to it.

I am planning on attending again as per usual... hoping to bring more Mustang Car Club of Omaha peoples and their cars this year... will decide which car I am bringing closer to the event... old one needs a lil tlc first...

My trailer is 5 years old now...with the Best Chinese no name tire available. Time to get a new set of Goodyears before the event.

And since you served your Country with Honor and I seem to remember you are a USAA member, don't forget that you have the huge discount with USAA Perks on Goodyear rubber --- essentially 4 for the price of three. Goodyear USAA approved Dealer has to do all the dismounting, balancing and more at discounted prices too and they jacked up my trailer and did all the stuff right at the selected store.

Yep. I have the Goodyears in my cart. Great service. The nearest install shop is 10 miles/minutes away. I will have the new TPMS senders installed at the same time. New King Ranch has the trailer TPMS, camera system installed. Im putting the camera on the trailer this weekend. Lots of wires......and Fun!!!!!

I need to figure out how to make a stop at the Speedway Museum in Kneebraska and the way through. Missed it last time.

The Speedway Motors Museum has an incredible variety of exhibits, I highly recommend it. Lots of stuff from very early racing & hot-rodding of Model T's, A's, and Ford flatheads, through the the 50's and 60's with Kool Kustoms and classic Offy-powered Indy cars, up to modern racers. Plus a huge amount of pedal cars, tin toys, model cars, and even tether racers. There's an entire huge wall covered in aftermarket flathead Ford heads. Get there early and plan on spending several hours.

Another cool visit in the Omaha / Lincoln area, right off I-80, is the Strategic Air Command Museum. https://www.sacmuseum.org/visit/exhibits/

Is the Alfalfa still free to take home in your undercarriage?

Not only is it free some folks have shown enough skill cutting through it they were told they should have "baled" out of a corner earlier. Hay, that is funny and I don't care who you are. I hope to make it as I still have some F.A.R.T. decals to pass out for those who show strong agricultural skills!

F.A.R.T. = Ford Alfalfa Racing Team

Yes, as well as any which is deposited inside the vehicle. Ask me how I know? lol.

Can someone post the current rules for the event? Class requirements?

I cannot find the class rules or requirements for the event - I do know when I registered the descriptions walked you through how Jeff was setting up the classes. They were pretty open due to some of the modifications to my car have me currently classed with some guys I know are far superior to my current skills, but I plan to wait and talk to Jeff when I get there. Even if I end up running the "good guys" I will still take away a ton of knowledge and experience trying to keep up with them. My two cents for what it isn't worth.

What tire are you running ---- used slicks are what can bump you up.

Tuned for 93, longtube headers, no cats and 200 TW tires. I could be wrong but I think those are the three things that push me up. Could be wrong.

Likely modified Class , but I will contact Mr. Lacina and tell him to post in this Forum.
