    Rember CAR WARZ- CRASH-A_RAMA and SPRINTS on oct 29th at VCS hwy 40 east of I-95.The fastest 1/2 mile in the world.The best of both worlds on dirt. should be our bigest show ever.
    We are looking for class C motorhomes for a demo there also. it pays $1,000 to win and $200 to start. That is more than most of the stockcar races..
    CAR WARZ and SPRINTS on dirt for one ticket on the same night has never been done before.
    Dont miss this one.
    There is also a endro that night, Boat race Doubble flag pole race and much more. For info call speedway or call me.

    The fastest 1/2 mile in the world.
    Uhhh...thought that was Eldora? According to their Web site:

    "ALL TIME RECORD 12.707 sec WoO Sprints Craig Dollansky 4/13/02"

    What's the all-time track record at Volusia? I doubt it's a 12-and-a-half second lap.

    The all-time Late Model record at Eldora is a 14.922 by Jared Landers at this year's Dream.

    Oh - and better check your directions again, Don If you go EAST on SR 40 from I-95, you'll end up at Ormond Beach...

      Nope its vsp..i was there this year during speedweeks when it happened. It was 12.4 or 12.5 or something ridiculous, they made reference to breaking eldoras record about 100 times.

        Bubba, is there any place I could look that up? Was it a WoO show? Volusia's Web site has NOTHING on track records at all.

        Here's what I found on WoO's Results page:

        2/11/11 - Volusia Speedway Park Qualifying: 1) 9-Joey Saldana 13.224
        2/12/11 - Volusia Speedway Park Qualifying: 1) 83-Paul McMahan 13.273
        2/13/11 - Volusia Speedway Park Qualifying: 1) 9-Joey Saldana 13.488

        Don't see anything in the 12's...

          I think that the racetrack wes braging about it being the fastest 1/2 mile so i guess they know what they are talking about? If im wrong ill own up.
          one thing i know is that someone is going to set a new record in a boat this year. Beat that Jimmy !!
          O and 11 miles west sounds good to me. 11 miles east i would get my feet wet.

            Yes I remember hearing Volusia holds the new record for the fastest lap time, This is what I found while googling it.

            "Earlier this year the record for a half mile speedway was set at the 2011 DIRTCar Nationals when perfect track conditions allowed Paul McMahan to lap the half-mile Volusia Speedway Park at 12.569 seconds at 143.209 mph"

                      The night got off to a fast start. During time trials, Paul McMahan and his #83 Roth/Kahne KPC shattered the track record by turning a lap in 12.569 seconds at 143.209 mph. With a tacky track, 27 of the 37 cars ended up qualifying under the previous record of 12.948 seconds which was set in 2007.
                      Found it; tough to find on the All-Stars' Web site :\

                      I stand corrected, then

                        Now the reason that i started this tread was to try to get the race fans and the crash fans to the same show. this will help both sides and promote short track racing to a new fan. It also might get some of the crash haters a grin if they watch the whole show. One of you Jims might be in the boat race before its over.
                        I got a car and a extra boat.

                          is .43 really a .5 mile track??????

                          Jimmy. You were not really wrong, but what you posted has the wrong MPH. That 143.209 was the calculations for a true half mile at 12.569.

                          This is what I found on Google.

                          Volusia is not the fastest half mile. Volusia is not even 1/2 mile track. It is only .43 miles just like Eldora. Almost a full .10 mile shorter than the rest of the tracks that call their self's a half mile. The fastest "true" dirt half mile was and still is Belleville High Banks. It is the quickest and the fastest.

                          If you do 4 laps around Belleville you will travel a little over 2 miles. If you do 4 laps around VSP you will only travel a little over 1 1/2. You would have to run 5 laps at VSP to go the same distance as 4 laps at Belleville. That's a big difference I don't care what anybody says.

                          VSP is the FASTERS .43 mile in the WORLD!!!!!!!!

                          Bristol Motor Speedway (temporary track)
                          .53 miles @ 13.860, or 137.66 (average MPH)
