Wisconsin International Raceway 06.16.07 - Drag Strip

This event will likely be the highlight of my 2007 season. I got to hold the flag for the national anthem! My brother-in-law is a DJ at the radio station that sponsored the event. I rode in the radio station's truck holding the flag out the window. We got on the drag strip at the last second, so I wasn't able to get pics. It was very cool.

I got to stay in the air conditioned tower after the national anthem. I stayed there for the first round. I got several nice pictures of different classes of cars http://www.flickr.com/photos/56091178@N00/ . I got a nice picture of a jet semi and a V8 powered by an alcohol with a blower. It smoked the tire all the way down the track. I accidentally took another pic when the driver was purging the nitrous. My 12th event at my 11th track this year.
