Day 2 of our "Terror in the Rockies" event is about to begin at Drag City USA. Track owners Rick and Diane bought the original "Psycho Slots Dragway" and renamed it Drag City USA in 2011. The original PSD surface was replaced with a TKO track in 2013 and still uses the original batteries that were used throughout the years at PSD. Bottom line, clean power with enough amps to power anything you throw at it. They hold local events 2-3 times each month during the Fall/Winter. By comparison to "Pikes Peak Dragway" Drag City USA is 1' 3" longer. High volts at PPD last night were 18v tonight we are running 26v. Drag City USA Track Specs •TKO Track Surface •Timed 16'-6" •Track Mate DP2000 Timing System •Power; Two 12 volt batteries Here is how the cars qualified M-T/FClass ran at 26 volts | Nitro Member | E/T | | 1.

First Rd. M-F/C. Eagles Mopar (Wounded Warrior) vs. Phantom's Ford (Van Halen) Eagle is in the left (Eagle Racing Lane) and Phantom is in the Kdog Racing lane.  Phantom cuts the tree down with a .0007 and has enough to hold off the hard charging Dodge. Phantom is going to the final! Sorry Eagle, You had me for a driver  
Up Next we have Angry Jeff's Toyaota with his bye run to the final.  The Toyota lays down a nice number and will be tough to beat in the final.  |

No team orders here!!! They both press the tree and the Mopar turns on the red! It would have taken a sizeable holeshot to get by "Big Daddy" Phantom's Swamp Rat is going to Round 2!  Coming to the line we have Angry Jeff's Wedge vs. Alex Dale Racing's Fram Dragster  |

another red light goes up trying to get one by the wedge. Sorry ADR, I was trying to cut a light. The powerful wedge heads to round 2.  Up next is a bye run for Jeff's Mav TV entry. This car laid down an impressive run.  |

Round 2 M-T/FPhantom's Swamp Rat (far lane) vs. Jeff's Wedge  The race is over at the hit. Phantom's driver goes for the perfect light and fails, somebody fire that guy!  even though the race was already won........ Jeff makes a statement by running down the foul starting car and motors pass him at the stripe.  
up next; the MAV TV entry of Angry Jeff.   It will be an all Angry Jeff final. Good luck Jeff!

up first. We have Jeff's Camaro vs. his Firebird Close E/T's from this pair of team cars. The Camaro wins on a hole shot. 
up next we have Phantom's Mustang vs. Alex Dale Racing's T-bird. Alex goes for a wild ride and almost takes out the tree! Phantom moves on to Round 2. Alex, Viper Scale Racing is sending you a new chassis and armature to build a modern MM/PS. I'll throw in a few extras as well to help complete your build.  
Eagle runs and appears to be all business.  |

Phantom vs. Jeff in Round 2. Eagle was seen in Jeff's pits between rounds psyching him up to take out Phantom. Must have worked. Jeff wins on a whole shot to a quicker car. That's the beauty of drag racing folks.... the quickest car is never guaranteed a victory.
 it will be an all Texan final!  |

Mountain Motor Pro Stock Finals!!!!!!!
Eagle's Mopar vs.Jeff's Chevy.
They both pull up to the stripe and just like last night, nobody wants to stage first.Eagle is thinking, not again!!!
60 seconds goes by and Eagle has had enough of the games and lights the staging bulbs. Lights come down and Eagle gets the whole shot and has enough to hold off the Camaro to the line.
Congrats Eagle!!!! You are the Top Eliminator in MM/PS at Drag City USA
(sorry for the blurry pic)
