Ok, I've got one for you Bret... why were the suites behind the starting line torn down?

Wow, I don't remember suites being there. Did they come alone after 1979, or am I even more senile than I thought?

Favorite story about the track was @ Cajon Nationals after the drivers meeting about the possibility of picking up snakes with parachutes after making the turn, Bob Glidden came all the way to the scales to let Etta shake em out. Also Bruce Larson's first Funny Car National event win.

I should have expected Adger to answer my question with another question! LOL!

Lemme guess. Your throttle stuck in reverse and you mowed 'em down with the roadster.

That's actually a tough one but, if my failing memory serves, weren't they torn down for the "Dukes of Hazzard" movie shoot?
