Yes they do that every time, no loss for me, waste of track time.......but a spectacle for the crowd I guess.

Jet cars are enjoyed by say the less knowledgeable folks, but there times are impressive to where they used to be. The real down side is that they ruin a great track...

VW's owners outnumber yanks, they crowds they draw are always big, far bigger than regular spectators.

The numbers they get for the Bug Jam, prior to the Mopar Nats are phenomenal... Last year or the year before, place was sold out, full up on the Friday
