That's pretty badass!

Flashing back to something similar...
when I was stationed at Holloman back in 93, the base used to hold 1/4 mile drag races once a month organized by Morris Machine (a local business/drag racer). They closed off a taxiway and had all the timing lights setup for it. That went on for awhile till we got a new base commander and he put an end to that.

I've been here for 5yrs, and all the old timers (LOL) would tell me about it all. I think they said TXWY Lima. I wish they would bring it back, but i'll be in Las Vegas in a month. So, i'll be 10 days past the Vegas race.
