Scarier (Ever drive a '70 Opel GT with a 454 big block shoved into it on the strip, the first pass went great, on the second pass the wheelie bars snapped and I ended up doing an impression of an inverted turtle)

Interesting (it was a unique experience, launched really hard, then all I saw was sky, and more sky, then the Christmas tree, and finally a lot of sparks and smoke....from what I was told, the car was completely off the ground for a second during its back flip)

absolutely (had to be, you should have had your space suit on for that ride)..

I see some nostalgia "wheelie drags" & this guy has a gremlin w/ BBC, that he tries to flip.. Oh it's a crowd pleaser.. It does go airborn prior to the flip..

Some hit the rear bumper so hard the slicks come off the ground, that's entertaining also..

Tomorrow, more cruising. Need to get the Flathead out.. Maybe late day rain coming.

feet (all I saw when the smoke cleared, just feet and voices asking me if I was OK)
