It amazing how much Phenix City (the track and grounds) still looks like it did in the 60's. Very little has changed in that regard.
For the guys that aren't familiar with current day Phenix City, you really need to watch this video.

Have you guys ever seen a track that will allow 30 people ON THE TRACK while cars are racing? I've seen one of the 10 "Crew Chiefs" actually have their hands on the quarter panel or trunk of the car when it the car launches. I saw a broken U joint take out a guy's ankle years ago, and the show just goes on! -lol It is an absolute circus. We quit going there many years ago.
