Yet another packed grand stands down here in Good Old L'ville to watch an open wheel show. If they had run them on the figer8 track it would have been a sell-out and they would have run out of beer before the main event.
I don't think anybody really ever found the grove for that track. You could stand in the pits and hear the tire squeeling going through turn 4or 5 or 6 what ever the turn was that ran into the front stretch. The guy that I thought drove it the best was Chet Phillips he sure was smooth there.
A track that will not be missed.
