Texas Two-Step March 13-16 2009 - DE at Texas World Speedway
This 3 day event only has 53 signed up. I am really surprised as typically it is hard to get a space for TWS events.
Who is going all 3 days?

Nice picture above ^^^ Was that one of the Hardtack shots or is that the MIKE shot?
NOPE - found it. That was the BAKER shot during Operation Crossroads. From nuclearweaponarchive.org -
"This close-up view of the stem from Eneu Island, 10 seconds after detonation, shows water starting to escape the stem and fall back toward the surface. At its greatest extent, the water column was 2000 feet (600 m) across, with walls 300 feet (100 m) thick, and 6000 feet (2 km) tall, holding a million tons of water.
As water falls back from the stem, it forms a dense highly radioactive cloud called the "base surge". Stern of the USS Saratoga can be seen rising 43 feet on the crest of the first wave (94 feet high and 1000 feet from surface zero). Waves 6 feet high were seen 22,000 feet (7 km) from the explosion. "
I'm there for all three days for the Club Race. See you guys there!
