OSCA

This past weekend I was fortunate enough to visit Toronto Motorsports Park for one of their OSCA drag racing events.

It got me thinking about chassis flex amongst a lot of things.

First of all it made me realize how much I miss domestics, and how nice domestic owners are compared to import owners. It feels like a very family oriented event, so I recommend everyone to check out OSCA if they are able.

The cars lined up represented a good selection of drag machines from small kid racer to nitro burning dragsters. Several cars exhibited enormous amounts of horsepower able to carry the front wheels of vehicles several feet in the air.

OSCA “Spring Kickoff” - 2 day event - (cayuga): 05-24-2008 to 05-25-2008

This is to be an awesome event providing the weather stays onside. The Weather Network is reporting Saturday is to be 20 degrees and Sunday 21 in Cayuga Ontario which is sure to make for some awesome drag racing.

Make sure to get out there and see these monsters run at Toronto Motorsports Park located in Cayuga.

A sweet ride at an Osca event in 2006
