I used to race all of the Western US NHRA national events (Super-Gas), and got to know a lot of the big name racers. I make a lousy spectator though, so the only times I ever went to just watch a national event it was when I got VIP passes from someone. One time I was the guest of Tim Wilkerson for the weekend, got to hang out in his transporter lounge and watch things up close. Another time I was the guest of Darrell Gwynn's team when they were sponsored by the Yankees and had Mike Dunn as a driver. It's been 10 years since the last one I attended, so I was planning to race at a national this season. Still not sure if I will though, as it is a ton of time out of the work week to sit and do nothing for several days (Wed thru Fri), and I'm still annoyed that they increased the entry fees AGAIN.
