A duster did win. I wasn't one of the sixteen but I'm hoping they got me in the pits!

Not just a Duster, a real MANUAL trans Duster!!!

Both of the finalists were picking gears the old fashioned way. Impressive isn't even the word for how those guys drove.

All the races were close and is so much better in person, rather than watching it on t.v. There was a nice t/a there but he lost in the semi's if I remember correctly. He was running nitrous and forgot to turn the bottle on. The cars were as awesome as the racing. It will be a good show to watch. Nothing like watching heads up racing at the stripe.

Yeah, the guys with the pewter T/A were from CT. They are cool guys, hung out with them in Memphis last year.

from what i heard from cris winters, it sucked. pinks told them to expect 15K people.....got about 2K. had to stretch the hell out of it to make the full 12hrs.

Don't know who he is but everyone has their own opinion. If he didn't like it he must not love racing itself. The number of people didn't make a difference in the racing. I would do it again if I had the chance, I met a lot of cool people and saw a lot of unique cars. There were a couple dozen of us at the stripe on the pit side having a great time.

yeah i dont think so. chris winters works at etown. runs their road course. accomplished road racer, drag racer, and former craftsman truck racer.

Like I said everyone has their own opinion, and for your average racer like alot of us (bracket racers) are it was a fun event. Maybe it was bad for his standards but for the blue collared guys that bust their ass all week so they can go racing on Saturday it was a good time.

There was waaaayyyyyyy more than 2k people there. The bleachers certainly weren't packed like when NHRA comes to town, but they were very full. The reserved seating looked like they sold about 75% of the tickets, and down where we were in the general admission seats were at least half full, if not more.

I don't know Cris Winters, but it sounds like his info is a bit off.

Thats pretty cool! I went from the auto firebird to a stick sc2 and I cant wait for the coin for a car with balls thats a manual..

I tried driving the cobalt just before and it was so weird and boring...

I was on there twice, once in the back ground when the guy was interviewing the chick with the flamed camaro and my car launching about 20 minutes in. I tvo'd it of course! I got my 5 seconds of fame between the two shows!

I also forgot to mention that TMR teammate was one of the featured cars on the outtakes show. Ron Booker Jr. driving the 64 Belvedere. His car blew the trans so he had to borrow a friends car. He was on tonights show telling his story when they interviewed the 11 second class.
