Post Race Post



  • Just got in from the races.
  • Above is what a jet car looks like when photographed by clueless cameraman.
  • The jet cars went over 200 mph on this track.
  • I've been down it in Camaro that went a little over a 100 mph in that same 1/8 of a mile.
  • My feet, back, head and knees hurt and I'm nauseous from all the fumes.
  • Oh, and my ears are ringing.
  • Bound to be a record for race induced afflictions.
  • A great time though because both my sons and nephew went with me.
  • Was ambushed at the gate by 25.00 dollar per person admission. I had no idea.
  • The girl cut me a deal.
  • Not sure if it was my charm or good looks.
  • Black people like the motorcycles.
  • White people couldn't care less normally.
  • Saw one fight.
  • Today's Top Fuel funny cars generate 8000 horsepower.
  • Bind moggling.
  • My Tahoe made 305 horsepower as I recall and the Camaro I mentioned earlier about 800 HP.
  • Spellcheck hi lites Camaro and offers Camry as an alternative.
  • The nerve.
  • I'm tired.
  • Excuse me the phone is ringing.
  • Oh, it's my ears.
  • I think I'll sleep naked tonight. No shower. When I turn in the night I'll get a whiff of burnt rocket fuel, alcohol, nitro methane and rubber.
  • I seepy, night- night, as Zac said.
