No Grit, No Glory!
July 2009
More than 750 fans packed the stands for the Belt Sander Race Association's 2nd National Championship held at AWFS®Fair in Las Vegas in July. The competition attracted entries from all over the U.S, resulting in a wild display of speed, sawdust, and flying parts, as record speeds on the track kept things as lively as a barefoot pedestrian on Vegas asphalt.
