Things are underway and since the course is all macadam, records will fall.

And the factory Ducs have done quite well this year, I might add.

Yeah, the last dirt got paved over :(

I used to live out that way when it was still mostly dirt. Those unlimited class vehicles had quite a gamble on their hands for a while. If they pushed too hard on the pave they would have no tires left when they hit the dirt.

1400hp....still getting slip in 5th.  [evil]

Heh - he's sponsored by some hotel in Cripple Creek. And yes, not PC, but there's a town in CO named that. About an hour from CO Springs by car. About 20 miles if you can fly - welcome to travel in the mountains.
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

The "Monster" racing an electric car this year.

Must be hard to drive that when the motor doesn't "talk" to you like a piston engine.

apparently not, as an electric car took 10th! (who knew!)

bad luck for Dallenbach and Tajima

Gotta love Goofy's instructional sports videos.
Would have been great if he'd done one on auto-racing!
