Although I didn't attend because my son was completely in favor of staying together with his friends and playing, instead of going to the races, I think your message thread and the descriptions of the jaw-dropping action that I heard first hand accounts of is one heck of a great statement as to the fan-first consideration that the Brownstown staff showed Saturday night.
My hats off to all involved. The accounts I heard (this is a direct quote) : "The greatest set of heat races I have ever seen anywhere!"--and this is coming from a stalwart CRA spectator, where they know great heats from just good.
Next time I'll have to yank my son away from his friends, or just bring all of them to the track like my dad used to do. I'm truly glad that those that attended were treated to such action, and no premature cancellation robbed the faithful or the deserving track management.
