Good Idea. I have never been to a race. It was on my bucket list.

Yea, but you are that much closer to the blimp when it crashes into the stands! One just never knows when their bill will come due.

be it drag race

Way back in the early 90s at Firebird in Phoenix, there was a 1964 Ford Thunderbolt there as an exhibition racer. Apparently, on Friday night's qualifying, it blew the clutch at the line. The bell housing caught most of it, but a chunk bounced out the bottom, off the concrete launch pad and up and over the stands into the pits. No one was hurt, but you just never know what can happen. We were there Saturday and Sunday for the main racing and talked to the owner/driver about it.
