It's easy to mash stuff up when someone else is supplying the money.... ::)

I wasn't trying to imply that they're all imposters or wimps, there's certainly enough video out there to show how wicked fast these cars are, and the pedaling that some of those guys do can rival John Force Funny Car stuff. Seen some pretty amazing saves on the YouTube videos, but I'll admit, I don't get why they'd risk life, limb and cars on 'No Prep' and fishtailing the entire 1/4 mile at 200mph.

Like Keith said, you had a good time and saw some good racing, and that's all that matters. If some guy wants to crash his $100,000 car, I'll gladly watch him do it ;D
Money. The top five get 50G a pass per TV episode.
I heard the track sold out and the fire marshal closed the gates to spectators not long after 6:00. I was told this has only happened once at an NHRA race in the history of the track.
