About 2 hours.

This is a great race to attend and we were planning on attending this year but this is the first that I have heard of it and we have the track in Jackson reserved every year the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Wish it was like last year and not on this day and we would be there.

Have fun, be safe and hope the turn out is charitable.

this IS the fun kind of draggin, not the lame style.

Ringgold is prolly no more than 45 minutes to an hour north of marietta. Its right at the State line right off I-75.
