ACDelco NHRA Gatornationals: Event Preview

If you have never been yet, I highly suggest going. I tell ppl this everytime, you have never expierenced fast till you see them run. And you have never heard loud till you go.

Seeing a car go 0-300mph in 4 seconds is definitely something everyone should experience before they die. It is amazing.

I used to go every single year for about 6 years straight.

Then I didn't for for about 3 years. Then I went in 06 again. I forgot how awsome it was to see them and hear them.

However I hate now that there is no more beer on sale there. That made me very very sad. I am not going this year do to I am going to 12 hours of Sebring for the first time ever.

The no beer thing kind of tripped me out last year. It a cool event, but it's PACKED like a mofo.

It ain't just about hearing them it is also about feeling them. When they go by it feels like some one is thumping your chest. Sit down track for the true feeling of the speed and noise.
