Neil C should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Welcome RaceFreak. Veering off topic here, but I have to second what you and MA say about Outlaw racing. Imagine small light cars powered by V8's with NO flywheels. This means instant torque, cars flying around dirt ovals with steering wheels at full opposite lock, using the throttle to 'steer' around the course.

It cant be described or appreciated on TV. You have to be there, which is the whole point of just about any sport, no? While working at the Indy track during qualifying in 1988, I had access to many drivers, Mears, Unsers, et al. The one autograph I walked away with? Steve Kinser
