By all accounts the NHRA's 4 Wide exhibition drag races at Charlotte were a rousing success.  My friend Buck Hujabre was there and gave this account to me, "I actually was standing right behind the cars when they launched on the 4-wide.  I was about 10 feet behind Wilkerson's Funny Car when all 4 cars did the burn-out and launch.  I can't even begin to explain the sound, the feeling, and the amount of Nitro Fumes.  I hope that I can get back to Zmax if they do it again.  That facility is out of this world."

Mike Neff won the Funny Car exhibition and Spencer Massey took the Top Fuel honors.  The real winners were the fans and those in attendance to see it.
