Re: Ken Black Parking Hillary Saturday!!!
Why stop there? Mr. Black could have his team camp out in tents to protest the high cost of hotel rooms. Mr. Black could have his team eat bologna sandwiches to protest the high cost of food. Mr. Black could tow his 3 race cars with open trailers and duallies to protest the high cost of diesel fuel. Mr. Black could take a Greyhound bus to the races to protest the high cost of jet fuel for his private jet. The possibilities are endless!

Great points Tony. The other ridiculous costs of racing are usually self induced. It's my guess that the price of Nitro is one of his smaller event costs. I certainly realize the necessity of keeping operating costs within reason, but there's also quite a few double standards in place.

Clarification
Need to clarify something, we didn't say that it would be this Saturday, but it will be one Saturday. Who knows, it could be Saturday at Denver -- time will tell

Re: Ken Black Parking Hillary Saturday!!!
If they are going to park it, Saturday is the day to do it. It's becoming that Saturday is the worst of the three days, Friday there's night qualifying and Sunday is final eliminations. Usually the first session on Saturday is a smoke-fest anyway, and in Sonoma they charge more for admission on Saturday then they do on Sunday. As a spectator if I were to skip a day it would certainly be Saturday.

Re: Ken Black Parking Hillary Saturday!!!
My $$ is on them sitting out next Sat up in Seattle. If the sun is out and it`s hot (like its calling for) then that left lane becomes even trickier.
