Dan;
The incident that apparently caused the shutdown was not a little burnout upon leaving like you did, but rather a full stage burndown right in front of the ice cream stand - right where my car was parked! This driver didn't get out of it, and started to fishtail out of control. It was a later in the evening, after I had left but you know how the crowd forms, and eggs people on!

I went to a new show yesterday, the 2nd annual Vargo Dragway Rod Run. This was a nice event held on a old dragstrip in Perkasie, PA (shutdown in 1970). Lots of old nostalgia items there, and some decent cars. Nice show, but lots of burnouts upon leaving - hope it's back for next year!!
