Congratulations to Rusty Hall! I was there,on the start line,in the pits,& til the end. We as a group of racers (stock / superstock racers) could not have asked for a better rep for our type of racing.He wasTHE ONLY class car there. He got picked. He got more potential television coverage than ANY OTHER class ALL YEAR! including the world champs & Indy winners.
I do not want to diminish others accomplishments but what Rusty did will be big for us. It will let average joes know what a aa/sa stock eliminator car is & does.
the ending is HUGE HIGH DRAMA i cant give away but lets just say the winner was preordained by god to win.
My only complaint was the FACT that the winning car should not have been there because it slipped through tech. This car was running 10.40s with STOCK 4 lug axles with an 8.8 rear end! BIG TIME RISK @ an event "where safety is our biggest concern" as said by Rich Christiansen him self!
All in All a great time and my hat is off to you Rust Hall you made us all proud to know you be there cheering you on and we would all do it again in a heartbeat.
P.S. the episode is scheduled to air in january. stay tuned however i heard multiple times this weekend that this is the last one... ever.
