DFW and Houston Lightning / F-150 fans 
head to Hallsville Raceway

A bunch of Folks from F150 Online and F150 World, met from all over Texas and Oklahoma at Hallsville Raceway north east of Longview.  The track is in great condition and MANY personal best's were set.  I definitely plan on going back because I know that I even though I ran a 13.43, more than 3 tenths faster than I have ever run, both my truck and the track could have handled more.
The track preparation and the weather combine to make for great times.  On the drive back to Dallas at Midnight the temperature rose over 10 degrees between Hallsville and Carrollton

I know I will be going back.... Soon ......Need to check the schedule... I don't think they have a web site... Will call next week

If anyone has pictures they would like to add to this or can tell which white Lightning is which 
send me an email and I will add to this page.
Dont forget that these are thumbnails because some people are in internet denial and still use analog modems.
