Also, the fans saw more racing here than watching eliminations. I think there were 12-14 Alcohol Dragsters for example...so they saw them all trying to get in the show, as opposed to the 8 who actually made it.

1000' AHFS dumps and throttle stop racing don't attract crowds. If they did, they wouldn't have finished us 8 hours before the show was over.

That "show" provides one of the nicest facilities in the country run by one of the best families in the business to give us a beautiful place to race.
