I went to this last year. I have to say this is the single most exciting race I have ever raced in and I have raced in a lot over the last 10 years. The excitement from qualifying with so many cars and the stands packed with fans was an awesome adrenalin rush. Esecially when I was the last car on the trac kin the first qualifier for my class and I saw a bump spot on the board that I had covered and did bump the bump car out!!!!

The link above has links on the left which include previous results so you can see where you would be. Times have gotten a little quicker each year.

Kudos to MIR for finding a way to get the domestics and imports competing in the same class.

This is the first year they are doing two day. I will miss Saturday as I have a Corvette Challenge at e'town but will be heading down for the only qualifier on Sunday to compete.

so who is the guy I met? - Red SS with stripes on spray? Said your sn on here was zapman or something like that What a busy weekend though shew, such a crazy event!!!! Foxbody rode the bumper sat night a little too much, car got on one wheel, forced it into the right lane, feet from hiting the other car, right infront of us at the fence. First time every seeing that in person sheww, was a close call. Little disapointed to see sal with that viper get eliminated, and also the hyped up nrg hatch go down on a red light.. ouch. Nice event!
