What a shame, No matter what the idiots on the show did , it brought grassroots drag racing to the public better than anything has in a lot of years. RIP

Same here, had a couple shots at it and had a blast!! If nothing else it made me make my car better than if it was just another bracket race.
Got picked both times and went out early both times. Would do it again if it comes back.

I didn't get in when it was up here, wish I could have. Don't understand how any small time racer could not like what the show did for grass-roots drag racing. Hell, if nothing else, they gave away how many HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS to guys like us???

This is a bummer. Seems that the SPEED channel got lots of mileage out of the show, too. Wonder why they closed up shop?

I am sure this years format didn't help either from what I saw no one liked it.

Really like it or not it put drag racing into the lime light tell me what other racing venue are you going to race where you have a chance of a good payout and possibly see yourself on tv and how about the track owners having a chance of making money its never good when a show about our sport gets canceled.

Go figure #1 rated show on Speed upon inception and they cancel it.
I loved watching it.
Never been to one but always wanted to try and get in.Don't think they ever picked low to mid 8 second field before.

How did you get that picture? Were you in the big SHOW?
That is a very cool shot and I like the way Willy B. was on the show. He had some peronality.

I enjoyed the heck out of my 15 minutes of fame and the cash wasn't bad either.

I made it into the show 3 times (Atlanta '08, Zmax '09 and Bristol '10) but didn't get pick any of the times. At Atlanta, they did a small feature (3 minutes) that aired on All Out outtakes and at Zmax one pass we made was shown twice on the out takes show. At Bristol a couple of my friends were picked for the 64 car field and one made it to 16 and the other made it to 8. I will have to say that we thoughly enjoyed ourselves, but it was quite expenceve (travel, motels, ect). I did not care for this years format at all and it seemsed to me that a lot of racers had figured out how to get a edge. I saw several cars that had a small shot of NO2 that they used once they got picked. (made time runs without it and if they got picked, they had 50 hp shot to use if they were behind, because we were told that the allowance was .2 sec before "breaking out").
Always a crap shot as to who got picked though.
Just my thoughts.
