Mike:

The video you just posted, if you can get past how awsome the race is, look at the stands. The video is being shot from what is considered by NHRA-Z-max as the cheaper seats. You are looking across the track at the "John Force Grandstand". Look down the stands as the camera pans. All of the people jumping up and down and waving, beside the camera person, are on the "cheap seat" side which was also filled.

This is what I have wanted to see since coming back into drag racing and building an "old school" superstocker. The stands were packed, the pit area was packed and the cars were superstock type cars and the people loved it. Speed Channel, Pinks or that guy Rich had noting to do with the response from the people watching these cars go down the track. And what about that wagon? I have noticed the same thing as has been previously mentioned, the only people in the stands at typical races are the family, friends and drivers not racing at the time.
