I didn't make it, and looking at the nighttime forecast I was rather glad I didn't make it down.

Glad to see a rather positive post, and at 34 years of age, I hope to see much more youth at the races!
The 290 likes is the facebook wikipedia definition of USAC. The actual official USAC racing fans facebook page has 15,170 likes....The World of Outlaws fan page only has 10,356...that surprises me as the WoO events seem to draw a younger crowd.
