A NASCAR fan recorded this video right next to the track as several cars speed by spectators taking video. Most do not anticipate what happens when vehicles going over 185+ miles per hour run through an open area in quick succession...

Let's see... About pack of around 35 cars... each with about 750hp... going by at 180mph. That's full of win!

I go to dirt track races often and even at 100 mph and only 15-20 cars it’s like that. On a half mile track, after 10 laps or so, the whole track looks like a west Texas dust devil. You sit there trying to see the race and keep the sand and grit out of your eyes and ears at the same time. Let’s not even talk about how your beer tastes when it’s full of good old NC red clay.

When they bring back the 426 HEMI, Ford NASCAR 427, Pontiacs and Oldsmobiles - I shall return to NASCAR fandom.

Toyota? Girl drivers? Little boy drivers that don't even shave yet? - what I wouldn't give to see a driver in an open face helmet chewing on a cheap cigar or tossing a cigarette butt out the window during a caution flag.
