That type of car is localized mainly to New York state, and the tracks that run them usually let the photogs in for a cut rate and let them stand in areas where spectators aren't allowed. Part of that agreement is you stay the gently caress out of the way, and never, ever enter the track.

Does anyone remember an insane hill climb time trial race that had, I think it was a modified Tiberius truck, but it looked nothing like a Tiberius. Didn't even look like a truck. I wanted to show a friend and can't find it on youtube.

IMO it's still going to win by a lot and set a new record this year. And of course Vantenan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FH1jRX3CjZs Can't find any good video of Rod Millen's Celica or Tacoma there though.
