Enjoyed opening night; great racing, visiting with friends I hadn't seen since last season in many cases, and the Mrs. came with me for the first time in a long while which made it pretty near perfect. The only fly in the ointment came in trying to exit the lower parking lot. Apparently there was a multi vehicle melee on Fairfax Road which brought the line exiting the parking lot to a standstill for several minutes. Don't know for sure what happened, but I did see at least three damaged vehicles. When there is a large crowd and vehicles are parked across the street, it results in cars approaching from multiple directions, as well as pedestrian traffic. Last year, there was a police presence after some of the big races, and it would be a good idea if that would occur on a regular basis to avoid situations such as that which developed last night.
Thanks to the management for providing a very entertaining program of all open wheel cars and for the five dollar admission price for next weeks' show. See everyone there next week!

Ron. We were exiting onto Fairfax road from the upper parking lot when the crash happened. I have no idea how it happened but we were right in front of it. I figured there would be a delay getting out. We lucked out
