    here's a clip of one of the rails making noise Friday night
    notice about halfway into it he pokes it
    and it lurches forward
    must not have been holding the brake and the thrust from the exhaust pushed it forward

    More likely the person holding the camera jumped when the driver whomped the throttle.

    Why didn't you go? It was huge this year. I hate to say it, but it was bigger than Viva this year. Lots of good stuff.

    Eric you must take a day off next year,or you will miss the show every year.

    THE RAIL MOVED FORWARD, NO ******** MAN.

    That was Jerry Ruths old Top Fuel Car. The coupler was hooked up and the young guy in it was holding the clutch and it got hot and slipped some. Car lurched forward about 3 feet and scared the **** out of me. I was standing right in front of the left rear tire out of exhaust range and I thought he was gonna take off. Sure scared all the people standing in front of it.I got some seat time in the Doss,Clayton,King car on Saturday. Highlight of the show for me. Oh, what a feeling on sitting in there with all that horsepower. Awesome.
