To me that was the cool part about class racing. Guys and gals thrashing on the car between rounds to squeeze every last bit of ET out of their combination. I'm not familiar with the new cars other than from a spectator's viewpoint and don't know if they require as much "parts testing" etc. but I just don't see it being the same. Mike was laying on the asphalt that night between testing hits changing the converter on his back with a flashlight late at night. If I remember correctly he was alone. I was impressed by that.
