Whoo Hoo!!!

OK!!!! So last night was an ABSOLUTE blast!!! I went to Gateway International Raceway!!! Seems that on certain Fridays during racing season, they have what is called "MIDNIGHT MADNESS"!!! For those of you who don't know...

MIDNIGHT MADNESS is any Tom, Dick, or Harry that wants to take his machine to the track and either amaze people with it's performance or make people laugh, wondering -

WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT GUY THINKING????

So I took some pics to share with you!!!

Lining up!!!!

OK!? So I know...pic's blurry...but hey....

wasn't all that impressive anyways.....

Watch 'em wait!!!

This car was HOTT!!!

SWEETEST car on the track!!

This guy pulled a 1/4 mile in 9.6 seconds!!

Did I mention that I LOVE this???

This car was pretty damn awesome too!!!

SMOKE those tires baby!!!!

THIS poor guy in his "Cobra" made it about 30 feet off the starting line!!

Better luck next time!!!

I really think I could go watch this stuff every night!! Too bad.....I think last night was the last one =(......

It's really quite a concept they have there:

Pay $20.00 to race - $10.00 to watch

Bring your own beer or drinks

Bring your own food

Have a good time

Listen to LOTS of bands

Stay out of trouble!!

OHHH!!! I forgot to mention.....they had "drifting" set up in the corner of the parking lot.....if you don't know what it is...I recommend you watch "Fast and Furious 2 - Tokyo Drift"........I'll also say that what I saw there didn't even resemble drifting. It was more like dummies doing donuts and almost smacking the wall....it was pretty hilarious......

I wish they would have had stuff like this when I was younger....I bet a lot of my friends would have stayed out of trouble!!!!

I highly recommend if you get the chance to go ......or you have a "need for speed", you go and check it out!!!
