The last great turnout for alcohol funny car was 2005...Manzo, Payne, Newberry, Moates and more. I think it was more than 16 total if I remember correctly.

I think you're correct, and the last time they had at least 16 cars entered in both TAD and TAFC was 2007.

That seems surprising, kinda figured everyone would head home considering the free weekend.
David, in years past a lot of teams drive their haulers straight to Brainerd from the west coast swing. They line them up on the return road along side of the track. Then some fly, and some ride in the support vehicles back to their shops. And some just stay there and vacation.:)

or they park the rigs @ the track and vacation in the
superb brainerd lakes area.
over 200 holes of world class golf within 15 mile radius of track.
 
I heard in one of the interviews Spenser Massey is going to be there this weekend to spend the vacation. I guess I was surprised to hear that he (or other people with that much money) would choose the Brainerd area to have a week off when they potentially have the entire world to choose from.
 
A few of the teams use to stay at Craguns Resort during the race week. That was a lot of fun.

Making my first trip to Brainerd for the national event. Looking forward to it.
 
After hearing about the things that go on, I would never go there! :D

Should say never go in the zoo sober... the drunker you are the funner it is!
363 nights a year I'm sober... BIR weekend - no kids, no driving, no wife, no doubt I'll be having the most fun I've had in the past 363 nights!

It is a MUST to stroll the zoo grounds... absolutely can't wait!
 
still no vern moats on entry list, anyone know anything?
he is a fixture @ BIR.
 
Vern hasn't been driving the car since Topeka, Mike Bell is driving it now.
