They had to close the gates at noon and turn MILES of spectator cars away at SGMP Park for Lights Out 7 back in Feb. Heads Up Sportsman Racing, very loose rules, just like the NHRA was back when this video was made. If you want spectators, you have to give them a show. As much as I love the cars in Stock and Super Stock, breakout racing is only interesting if you are the driver.

Oh. That's nice. I thought we were talking about NHRA / IHRA sportsman viewers, since that is the emphasis of this site.
Forgive me..I don't know who you are.
Have you ever been to an NHRA Divisional race, even WITH alcohol cars present?
