[quote=BlackcatAlum]I heard they just sold over 5k tickets for the event and had over 120+ cars.

I went and it was an awesome event for everyone involved. No complaints from anyone that I know of, other than it being 100 degrees out.

Since the event was so popular I believe they're going to wait until next spring to host another race and repave the strip and add more bleachers and probably fix the parking problem that the everyone had.

I'd like to thank the city of Prestonsburg for putting on such a great event!

The board has already got calls about having another event. As for the surface, the airport runway was just redone last year. For those of you who have high hopes of the Combs airport becoming a permanent drag racing facility, I wouldn't bet on it. Everyone on the airport board has as a plane or planes, and they are in the hangers located at Combs. This event took alot of time getting the board to approve. On a side note. I think they should have a race during the Apple Festival at the end of this month, first of October. That would bring in even more fans.
