Even though I am bringing up the fact the first in the 300 in Top Fuel happened 25 Years this Hour, and too, of tangible Auto Racing Accomplishments (Not Tragedies) I could legitamately time stamp and I am going to tell you the story of how I found it out. Some of my blog and community audience may have heard this before, but, I am going to say it again.
3:00 when I was heading on the Bus from what was then-Prairie Elementary to Lisbon, that was when the actual 1st in the 300 Qualifying Pass happened (4:00 Eastern Standard Time). And, with my Bus Driver Diane travailing through the College Community Campuses and the scarred, Cattle Grazed Countryside which at the time had no suburban homes, no nice things, and no nice businesses to work for, much less nice bike trails to Iowa City at the time, through the bottoms and the Palisades Observatory over the Ivanhoe, into Mt. Vernon, conversely tailing off Highway 1 and then later at 4:00 (5:00 Eastern Standard Time), the first in the 300 Pass being the top of every news show for a year, or motorsport show.
Granted, the ball is catching up, there not as many people capitavated by the year round motorsport other than communities in 1992, and granted, there being no contemporary Internet at the time, but, I feel it is worth a 2nd Look from those who've been the Sport every step of the way and not just watched Barney or Kids Shows or did Sports at that period and the only socially acceptable way to leave home is to be on those books. But, my warning is it wouldn't be appreciated the same, much less told the same, and other than having an arteur view of storytelling, both willing and unwilling, praising and condemning, which not everyone does that art like a J. Cole Album, but instead, gets hyper like Kendrick Lamar and we have to go to Toronto to take both the Inner City, Basketball and Hip Hop, Cradle and All, like it was New York City, which encourages people to spend their hard earned money more than once on concerts,shirts, and tours.
