Dang, this is why I hate the begining of the year. January-March is always packed full of events and then the rest of the year is boring.

I went Sat and Sun.  It was a blast.  My first time.  I took my kids on Sunday and was amused when my littlest one (she's 5) fell asleep and slept, in the stands, through the Nitro Cars!  Couldn't believe it. 

It is absolutely something that I would like to do again though.

I have been a drag racer for many years and know many people in the sport .I recieved some sad news about Eric Medlen (driver for Jhon forces team) he had a bad crash during some test and tune runs on monday after the gators .It is being reported still that he was injured but I have confirming info that he has passed away from his injuries.Please pray for his family ,he has been an asset to the sport for many years he worked with Keith Black and many others.He will be missed. :'(

GAINESVILLE, Fla. - NHRA driver Eric Medlen was critically injured Monday in an accident at Gainesville Raceway, his team said.

Medlen, who drives for John Force Racing, was injured when his Funny Car crashed into the right guard rail during a test session. The 33-year-old was transported by helicopter to the University of Florida medical center, where he was being treated in the intensive care unit, the team said on its web site.

His injuries were not disclosed.
