Re: Pinks vs. NHRA
Went to Pinks last weekend in Tucson and the stands were packed. No room at all with the fences being 8-10 deep at the starting line and 2-3 deep at the finish line. I'm guessing 8000-10000 people total. ($20.00 each) I stayed at the 330 mark and the crowd was totally into it, cheering for people they don't know. A Mitsubishi went 2 rounds and the people were screaming and cheering for his wins. It was disapointing that a 12.5 time was picked as a large cluster of low 10 second , some wheel standing vehicles that could of made for a exciting show. Back in Feb. I went to the Pinks race at Firebird and then i suggested to everytone to email Speed TV to see if we could get a show together and I received 1 email stating they would look into it. Definitly been more fun to race or watch Pinks in person then Div and Nats. What we see on TV is not as fun or exciting then the event itself. They could use someone different to edit for sure.
