Well, I'm origianlly from cheeseland, and Saturday night at the dirt
track stock car races just wouldn't be complete without some "special"
events.  Backwards races were always a real treat, but my favorite was
the blindfold race.  The drivers are blindfolded, and the co-drivers are
in the back seat giving directions.  Those guys were nuts - they would
STAND on it and trust the back seat. Some teams were quite skilled  -
others weren't.  Quite entertaining...
