"Live From" the NHRA Toyo Tires Nationals.

Jack is right..... this place is packed!
I have never seen this many fans on a non-sunday!
Yesterday was almost as packed.... I'm sure this will be a record breaking weekend for MG.

Also... the $10 parking was along side the track (on spectator side), the track did offer free parking to the right and left of the track.

I went up Friday morning, got there about 9, parked in the field on the pit side, behind the staging lanes maybe 50 yards from the gate. Cost me $10. Look up on that hill. How many thousands of cars do you think are there? x 3 days!

Great Pictures and fine reporting Jack.. Even though we were there for some of the action, we kept reading this post to catch up on action we missed. Nice job Jack, you certainly got it covered, and covered well.
