Go the Grub...long time coming. Those widely varying temperatures got everyone confused. Glad there's some different teams doing some scoring now and mixing it up a bit.

It's been a long time since I have seen Conny so happy. To bad it wasen't Doug and Grub in the final!

I've never been a drag racing fan BUT.....................
I must admit that I do like the 4-wide format !

Yeah...can only imagine what the sound and vibration is like when 4 of those nitro machines blast off at the same time at the 4 wide Zmax....

That is the single worst thing Smith has done. It's designed to bring in the fire, smoke, and noise crowd. As a real race fan you cannot follow what is happening. There is no way to assimilate that much information during a run. The teams hate it but are forced to play nice with Smith.

Teams can always break away and form their own league like the IRL did....
