There was a big car show in Ocean City, MD last weekend. I went down Friday and Saturday night. For once, it didn't rain half the weekend as it has recently. ;D As soon as you get to the main strip you hear loud engines, screaming, burnouts, etc... and usually you can smell race fuel in the air. Essentially, it's heaven for gearheads. It doesn't hurt that it's at a popular beach and when it's warm you can usually find things other than cars to check out as well. I drove down alone the first night so I never took any video or pics. I just cruised around. The second night I filmed, but I suck as a camera man for this stuff. If you don't hold the camera up all the time it won't focus fast enough to get anything and half the time I'd turn the cam on too late. Basically, I got nothing really good. I missed way more than I filmed. A few times I saw cars pull the front wheels up or real close taking off. That's probably the coolest thing to me. Wheelies on a scoot are one thing, getting a car to lift the front end on the street is a whole different story. Here are a few clips from me... Here are a couple of vids from folks that do a better job of filming the event than me... The cops had a VERY busy weekend...

Watched this on ESPN2 yesterday. Jim Head's Funny car explosion was spectacular. Haven't found vid yet.

Here's another bad fire from the weekend races...
Glad I didn't see any of that stuff in OC! :jaw:
