Yeah,I haven't stood behind them when they're testing in the pits for years after getting blasted by fumes. How about when they blip the throttle and you feel like you've been shot, for a second?

I'll probably be there for eliminations at the end of the 1/4 seats and maybe around the tree a little. FWIW,Im an older mo fo with grayish hair and beard,6ft 182 lbs. Have fun folks!

Cat guy is "hot"-Rod Fuller. I saw him preparing his fuel on a Sun morning a couple yrs ago.

I'll see if I can spot that Ray Mac cap. I'll probably be wearing a white Crown Royal Racing cap.
