I live about 30 minutes away. Went the first year and it really SUCKED to try to watch 4 cars
But Zmax is an AWESOME track so now I just go to the Friday Night under the lights qualifying which is the most fun to see (and the best value experience-wise too) and that's good enough for me.
Do I really care if Mike Neff beats Robert Hight or whoever in the finals? Not really I do pull for AJ but to be honest I haven't really cared who actually wins an event since Alderman quit and the Legends like the Snake, Glidden and Bernstien retired
Qualifying is as exciting as the race to me, plus there's less people so it makes getting in and out and up close to see things a whole lot easier and more fun
