Ahem.
Just remember that the ride thing REALLY took off last year when Rolling Thunder and yours truly lined up and did burnouts with a cop flagging us off (I know DV--shame, shame on us). Then the FFR guys went to town. And all day long--Wayne and the computer controlled GT40 thingy was screaming in and out of town (shaking the he!! out of the porta-potty I was sitting in!).
And the folks paying the money thought they were having fun.
