We officially past the halfway point of Edelbrock Sick 66 as the tour rolled into Amarillo Dragway in Texas on Tuesday. A trio of track dates was joined by a near 300-mile drive day on day four (Monday, October 14th), and with just over 700 miles traveled by almost all the competitors, it was time to see who could continue to attack the track for some good numbers and a chance at the overall top spot.

We hit the halfway point on racing activities when Robert Voss made the final pass down Tulsa Raceway Park’s surface during day three of Edelbrock Sick 66. Racers had now traveled over 250 miles between three race tracks, and we set our course for Texas and Amarillo Dragway on the first of two drive days. Could everyone survive the first extended travel day and the original Route 66 for nearly 300 miles?

We’re nearing the halfway point of Edelbrock Sick 66, a drag-and-drive based around using as much of Route 66, a road that’s been use for nearly a hundred years. Some amazing checkpoints, as well as some tight racing in the three track visits, have marked this ‘one-time-only’ event. As we concluded day three’s racing activities and drive to Edmond, Oklahoma, some changes are afoot in the top ten, as well as facing the first serious driving day on Monday, October 14th. 

Spanning two states, four tracks and just over 1100 miles on the road, the fifth edition of Rocky Mountain Race Week 2.0 (Raceweek) came to a close back where it started, Pine Valley Raceway in Lufkin, Texas.

The event brings some unique twists for the final day of competition, as well as four classes of heads-up and bracket racing action, and that awaited the souls that made it back to the start of their week-long journey.

After three race track dates, the competitors at Rocky Mountain Race Week 2.0 stayed in Louisiana for a second day of racing action.

After making the trek from State Capitol Raceway in Port Allen to Monroe and Twin City Motorsports Park, participants would get their final chance to stake their claim for a class title. Then, it was merely surviving the trip back to Texas, to check the final box to determine class champions.

After a pair of track dates in Texas to start Rocky Mountain Race Week 2.0 (Race Week), competitors got a full day of driving action to roll into Louisiana for racing at State Capitol Raceway in Port Allen on Wednesday morning / afternoon.

The majority of the incoming class leaders held their top spots, but a few notable names are out of competition, or lost their class leads.

The fifth anniversary of Rocky Mountain Race Week 2.0 (Race Week) got underway Pine Valley Raceway in Lufkin, Texas for day one with 231 participants. Stop two would be the all-concrete Texas Motorplex.

Could any of the competitors take advantage of all that concrete, and blast to a better time than what they produced on Sunday night?

With ten years of solid history of Rocky Mountain Race Week (RMRW) in the books, the second helping, Race Week or RMRW 2.0, recently got underway for its fifth year in Texas.

Focused on tracks in Texas and Louisiana, the Motion Raceworks Race Week Presented by Sick the Magazine had several familiar names on the registered list, which will lead to some interesting battles for class titles.

Six days of driving and racing reached the ultimate conclusion last night, as the tenth running of Rocky Mountain Race Week Presented by Sick the Magazine hit the finish line at Tulsa Raceway Park in Oklahoma.

After five days of racing and driving, Rocky Mountain Race Week 1.0 has one final drive today, back to where it all started, Tulsa Raceway Park in Oklahoma for a packed final day of crowning winners and racing action.

The drag-and-drive community can get a harsh reminder that just surviving the week is the top task. Then again, Rocky Mountain Race Week 1.0 is still seeing some competitors clocking insane times, and the index classes continue to be close battle grounds.

To kick off the 2024 Rocky Mountain Race Week, Tulsa Raceway Park hosted 314 vehicles and 12 motorcycles on Sunday. With racing activities completed that evening, the Monday ‘workload’ would be who could survive 350-ish miles from Oklahoma to Texas to stage up on Tuesday for day two of racing, and day three of the week.

The second major drag-and-drive to hit the scene, Rocky Mountain Race Week, celebrates its tenth year of holding at least one event each year in 2024. The first of two to be held this year, RMRW 1.0 Presented by Sick the Magazine features new tracks, as well as some new competitors, and kicked off Sunday June 23rd.

We first reported on Concho Valley Dragway’s concept in April, and just 34 days after ground-breaking, the track surface had been poured in concrete, and the return road, pit area and staging lanes has also been completed in asphalt.

Justin Harvey admitted the amount of street racing around the area had gotten to such a peak, that either a street permit to do something, or building a race track were the likely solutions.

Although he was a familiar sight in the “My Little Pony” Fox Mustang, Cali Nate also spent time behind the wheel of a single turbo Datsun 240 Z recently.
