Ardmore Dragway would like to say thanks to all, the loyal racers, fans and sponsors, that hung in through the rain to experience a great race day.
First of all we are sorry for you that missed it but we understand due to the weather conditions your decision on staying home. But for the brave folks that adventured to Ardmore they were part of a drag race festival. Thanks to Stereo Designs, Ten Buck Two Night Club, The U.S. Army, The Daily Ardmoreite and The USCI team for supporting us this year. Our Team Championship went to Oklahoma, but you guys from Texas are a true class act. Thanks for coming. Guyniece took over 400 photo's and I will be adding them with story lines during the next few weeks. Grab a cold drink and sit back and enjoy the sights of the Red River Shootout Two. Thanks Ardmore Dragway
