Yeah...what's up with that? Just paid $20 to see it. Walked through the pits, watched a couple of our local guys do some kick *** exhibition runs and then went searching for the LS1TECH car. Called a buddy who lives over the by the hotel they are staying at and he said the car was on the trailer. I hope they backed out because NO ONE wanted to race them...if not i'll be very disappointed. The whole PINKS production has begun to be VERY lame. Gates opend at 3pm and the first race wasn't until until almost 8pm. PLus they were charging $20, you couldn't bring any coolers in and there was no re-entry. I'm gonna throw out a big

Maybe it's all a big rumour, and the filming location was kept a secret. The Kansas City, MO setup was just so the real race could be hidden til the show aired on TV.

I don't want to say much else until I hear the whole story, but I have to say I'm extremely disappointed we didn't get to see a race tonight. The LS1tech race was the only reason I went out tonight. I only drove 30 minutes to see it and am still disappointed. I'd be absolutely livid if I drove multiple hours such as many of you did.

What a joke, sponsors help build a car to race on a TV show.. then the car your going to races backs out, and a new one is found.. then the "if you win will you give it back line is said" and the MUSTANG guys say NO WAY.. and what happens next PSJ backs out..
I'm sure it will be twisted a little different but I WAS THERE!!!
