Re: Lawrenceburg WoO
I didn't go. I honestly don't know why the turn two stands were built there and not on the back straight on some ten foot pillars like the front straight but higher. I've watched races on the back straight and it isn't dusty but that turn two stands where the dust gets pushed up and out is not that fun. It also happens out of turn four but the roof of the grandstand creates a little blower channel that blows it back into the track.
If it were me, I'd sell the top ten rows and the two sections in front of the booth as reserved and leave the rest festival, Id do it for the USAC and Lucas shows as well, This isn't a complaint, it's a observation. I have no idea what goes into selling this event the way they do it and how to police it (That people actually get the seats they paid for) I do know they took a hell of a risk putting on the stow themselves and a lot of work into selling, answering questions, refunds/re-issue if rain-outs etc vs having a promotions company like SMS do it by leasing the track operations to them.
Glad everyone seen a heck of a race, Sounds to me it's been two years in a row now that outsiders have come in and spiced the show up vs the three years I went and called the outcome before the race even started..
We were going to go but I was still recovering from a 50hr marathon of going to bloomington, setting up camp, Watching the Burton Memorial then only getting two hours sleep, to go all day at the Little 500, driving home and still only getting about four to five hours sleep saturday night. Yesterday was rough. I decided not to go. From talking to a couple friends who went, I should have gone.
See ya June 10th Midget week with Non Wing Sprints. BE THERE! Get there early for good seats, dont mark more than ya need. Avoid the long main gate line by paying cash at the turn two pit gate or the turn four gate. :)
