I don't have the patients to wait longer than 3 or 4 seconds to see who won (grin).<br /><br />Jill E, it was a long day for him. I actually think he got tired out. Of course the ground shaking noise would wake the dead. Unbelievable if you have never experienced it.<br /><br />Jill, it is a huge event. They will be in Pennsylvania this coming October with the eliminations on the Sunday the 6th at Maple Grove Raceway in Reading. If you can get tickets it is worth seeing (I mean feeling) at least once in your life. But be careful, it is addicting. I watch the it on TV, in fact the only sports I watch on TV.Dizzy-Dickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14150939928800538404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3297986341537650775.post-17148927229974718932013-04-29T19:50:11.744-05:002013-04-29T19:50:11.744-05:00My daughter and her husband went to some racing ev...My daughter and her husband went to some racing event in Maryland this weekend also.

When I was a kid my dad belonged to a Jeep club. They would drag race in a cleared field. Noise and DUST is what I remember.
