The 26th Annual Mopar Mile-High Nationals were held at Bandimere Speedway in Morrison, west of Denver, on July 15, 16, and 17th.  Bandimere Speedway is often referred to as "Thunder Mountain" by the drag racing teams because of the fact that it is located in the Denver foothills, and the horrendous noise that the top fuel cars produce when they make their 330 mile-per-hour runs.  This track is also the highest elevation track on the NHRA drag racing circuit.

Lessons learned:  I really blew it this year!  I took one of my digital cameras (the good one) up to the computer to offload all of the photos so I would have lots of room to take a lot of pics at the races this year.  Guess what!?  I left it attached to the computer.  Imagine my surprise when I got to the races and opened my camera bag only to find my crappy (other) little digital camera in there, and the good one absent.  The good digital pics will have to wait until next year.  Fortunately, Mary Jo had her Nikon with her and took some amazing shots.
