I think it would be great to have more trips to very local tracks to get a bunch of grudge runs from neighbors rather than big productions where contestants have to travel to the larger tracks. Wonder what the productions costs would be? VMP was fully prepped (from that day's racing) and had good night lighting.

I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I stood about 30ft from the wall on the right lane and of course had a great view. I don't really care what anyone else says, but I'm a big fan of the show (my dad and I watch it every week) and it was pretty cool walking right by Rich Christensen and the rest of the cast.

I heard something about how they can only travel to 11 tracks or something like that because afterall they are racing for titles which = gambling and of course gambling is illegal in a lot of states.

Guys... The little S10 was a stock stroke 351W with flat top pistons. It "MAY" run in the 10's on motor but thats about it...

And its all real, the Buick Regal that was one is sitting @ Eddies house in Mechanicsville....
