Bret, welcome to Land Speed racing, my wife and I have been going to Medford, Oregon for the last 45 years to visit my father and mother who had a cattle ranch near Lake Creek, now my brother Barry owns the Desert Pump and Kennedy Fuel Co,(heating & airconditioning), we go to your local drag strip all the time, you should try and go to Bonneville for Speed Week in August or World of Speed race in September (130 & 150 MPH club event) and it also has regular 3mile and 5 mile races too. I'm sure your dad will want to go too, we will be racing at Speed Week in August, if your there stop by and see us in the pits, we race a 1963 Avanti and its car number is 1963, take care, Dave Bloomberg
