After significant damage from June rainstorms, Top Gun Dragstrip recently released information that they are ready to race again. Officials report that the track has been cleaned, the pit has been repaired, and the timing system has been restored to NHRA and Compulink standards. 
Work continues on the well, but arrangements have been made with the City of Fallon and Churchill County for the water needed to supply the Saturday race and for upcoming events.
Top Gun expresses appreciation for the ongoing support during this challenging season. “We couldn’t have done it without you,” writes Top Gun management, “This track will continue to work forward to provide a save and enjoyable racing experience for everyone.” 
On August 12, Top Gun is hosting their “$5 Saturday” race.” Gates open at 3 p.m. with an open test and tune from 6 p.m. to midnight. Summit Points racers and other racers participating in ET bracket racing should look out for a special announcement regarding the September 15-17 event. 
Join The Fallon Post and Les Schwab on September 10 for a car show fundraiser at Les Schwab Tires to support Top Gun as they continue to repair the water and property damage. Sponsors include Summit Racing, Wild West Burgers, Fallon Speedway Market, The Alley Bar, and Camacho Auto Sales. Top Gun announcer Davy Munoz will be MCing the event.

Thank you Kelli Kelly.Comment publication date: 3/21/26, 8:12 AMComment source: In memorium -- The Melon ManComment author: Bob SondgrothComment text: There are times when you should just know about someone. Who and what they REALLY were. Because they were devotional and IMPORTANT to the humans they connected with. The content of their life bled so that others could feel their own life’s importance. Teachers of justifiable life and art. That all can absorb and use as the best fertilizer for THEIR lives. Giving the silent secrets and the loud guidance. The Melon Man was a perfect specimen for how to devote. His passing meant a life book of feeling/knowing what gives other humans their paths to Love and Knowledge. Some humans are meant to show others their paths. And in that they secrete ways to profitably exist.Comment publication date: 3/18/26, 4:50 PMComment source: In memorium -- The Melon Man
