"Live From" zMax Dragway Charlotte

I’m curious why Factory X exhibition runs aren’t on the detailed schedule? The X cars (sadly minus Blackbird X) were originally scheduled to debut there.

Probably not enough cars done yet. I wish they were running them!

Thanks James for getting the Live From going... I had to spice up the title a bit.

What's up guys, it doesn't look good as far as the weather, we may get a window late Friday and Saturday, but who knows how it will go... I'm thinking we will be here on Monday. Maybe they will let racers withdraw like they did in Gainesville last year. Anyway, I'm here and will cover the race the best I can.

I should have pointed that out. Those speeds bumps can tear up a rig pretty easy if you do not take it slow.

Good morning folks, yeah its raining, but it looks like we may get part of Friday in and Saturday.... Sunday looks, well not so good.
