Take some vids so you can post it for those that can't make it.

No vids since I don't have something that can record them! I'm sure they'll be up on youtube though...

I went, watched some cars, drank some beers, saw girls in swimsuits, left a little buggered from the experience. It was fun! I took some pictures and if I ever have a sober moment in front of a computer I might even get them posted. :)

That was me Matt :)

Good times definitely.... Some "marked" moments were:
1.) Two Harley's racing... one gets a bad start in which he gets pitched forward, but recovers... He then proceeds down the drag strip unaware that he has pulled his shirt up and his pants down slightly.... of course causing him to show 2000+ of his closest friends a good 6" of crack all the way down the strip
2.) Bikini Contest - Not much for these, but there were some VERY interesting contestants that probably should not have been up there...
3.) The Bentley with carbon fiber wheels
4.) The Lambo that got embarrassed by a Nissan Sentra
5.) The Firebird that had a great launch, lost a wheel and axel about 60' down and came to a nice stop... then his wheel came rolling up behind him and hit him in the drivers side door.
6.) Watching a douche bag BMW owner who constantly was an ass in traffic get pulled over.

I took a TON of video and pictures which I'll upload later tonight :)

Sounds cool. Very sad to have missed this one again. There's always next year!

You forgot to mention the RSX who's front end locked up causing it to endo to a stop.

Or the Chevy that snapped it's rear axle on take off and as the car skid to a stop the wheel that fell of came around and slammed into the side of the car.

And what car was it that got beat by the Astro van?

Mr.Kleen's got my back y0!

I did forget the RSX, that was hilarious (video will be up soon!)

Hmm... wasn't it a Sentra or something? That Van was pretty mean (for a van...)
