Another attraction to the Oak Hollow Boat Drags is being able to watch the crews work on their boats in the pits. The pits are at the top of the hill, and spectators are pretty free to get right up to the boats, as you can also see in the pictures above. A little knowledge of just what was going on would probably enhance this attraction, so I plan to do a little studying before I go next year. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that the party atmosphere probably draws as many people as the action on the water. Everyone is out for a good time, so the atmosphere is very casual, as is the clothing, what little of it there is.
Many people dress as if they're on the beach, and that comes in handy on a hot day.
A cold beer also comes in handy when the mercury soars. Just be careful not to dehydrate yourself. Overall, I really enjoyed my first trip to the Oak Hollow Boat Drags, and I do plan to go next year. Hopefully, by then, I'll have learned enough to appreciate the sport as much as I appreciated the party.
