I accidentally woke up in Topeka today. (Must be the Alzheimer's.) And then I accidentally found myself at Heartland Park where, coincidentally, the NHRA Summer Nationals are being held this weekend. An amazing coincidence. Really, it was.
Anyway, since I was already there I decided to wander around the pits. Do you realize that at the top of the food chain (nitro) these guys are putting out around 800 hp, per cylinder? I've seen camping tents smaller than some of these engine blocks. Absolutely amazing.
I love racing, in every flavor. Never a dull moment.
Just thought I'd pass that on. That is all. Carry on.
