This entire day was surreal. It was one of "those" feelings all around the speedway as soon as it happened. The crowd gave two loud "Oooo"s and the second was much louder than the first. When Randy made the announcement, it confirmed the pall that had descended across us all.

The tribute was a unique and amazing thing to be part of. Something that regardless of how it 'looked on tv', no one will EVER wish to repeat. Standing on the line that close to the track felt as if I was an unwelcomed guest at a wake. Watching one lap was enough. The rest were endured with my head bowed, wondering how I could just get away from this and how the field was able to hold enough composure to go around five times.
