Five of us went to the sprint car championships last evening. Dirt track racing at its best. Today I am dust all over. Fortunately my piston head buddy and his daughter know all about this stuff.

1/3 of a mile track will speeds up to 120 miles an hour. Lots of wrecks and spin outs but amazingly nobody was hurt. Some leadfoot from California won and it was exciting.

Me too... I wanted a dirt midget when I was 26..
The midgets raced there too, along with the 410s. The midgets had more trouble staying four wheels down then the big 410s did.
