    To be so well educated you sure make some ignorant posts sometimes.

    I was there to see it myself. Had a great time. If you have never seen the nitros running 4 wide, GO sometimes.

    For sure. Can’t describe it. At the first one we had a lady sitting behind us that had never been to a drag race before. She had been to many NASCAR races before. I tried to warn her what was going to happen but she didn’t believe me. When the first quads came she started screaming at the top of her lungs. She asked what was that. I said nitro dear. She wanted to know if she was having a heart attack. I said it was from the vibrations from the cars

    The first time my wife witnessed a pair of TF cars go by, she just looked at me in disbelief.

    Any one remember Eddie Hill? Top fuel record holder on both land and water. He had some big time accidents racing both back in the day and was a pioneer in several safety devices.

    A little sarcasm. I guess I need to denote everything as parody or sarcasm. I personally would not drive one a 16 th of a mile.
