Track crew is giving the dragstrip a last go over and we should be ready.  There are folks lined up all the way down the track! Unbelievable.  |

 Track is good to go. We have picked a tyco 440x2 pickup truck as a test vehicle. This will be ran if anything looks off on the race screen. I still get a weird mph sometimes. I may take out the segment sensors for the faster classes. We will play that by ear. |

Here's a shot of the driver stations. Notice the yellow lane station has two switches. The black switch powers both lanes. That's what we will be using for the event  |

To kick this thing off I can only think of one way. Will this become a tradition? Only time can tell. It's the Ghostbusters crew vs the mystery ink gang. (Crowd cheering in the back). This is how we started off last year and since the challenge is back. Let's go with it. One thing of this challenge I didn't like last year. These cars pull double duty. I didn't like showing the times they ran for winner. So.... This year the ALLEYRATZ team hired local 38 elections union to come in and wire us up some win lights over the lanes at the finish. The lights are ran off the finish sensors. I had to set the lights further back from the finish line so they didn't block sensor lights, if your wondering.  And for back up we have a track side official at the finish. We may never know what's in the can he's drinking, but we know he has one good eye.  Lanes are checked for 20v  |

The light drops.... It's go time. I can feel the vibration of the ground shaking. Gnome gets the jump off the line.  And it was enough to get the win  Yellow lane light winner  |

Ghostbusters don't take that lightly as they rush back to line. In strolls mystery ink for another go.

They are fired up at the line  Looks like they may be stuck in a starring contest hope they are watching the light. They are HERE THEY GO! Gnome has a jump from the start and uses that to his advantage. Gnome must have had some nitro ready for back up because he let it show this round and rolled out after half track.   Red lane light winner. Gnome takes it in 2  |
