I know I am echoing comments from previous posts, but lost in all the complaints is the fact that there was a RACE at the action track!! Last year and all winter I would drive past the track and get ticked off and bummed about what had happened to the track. Sunday was awesome. Pulling into the parking lot to the sound of sprint cars engines, and the smell of burnt methanol (sp?) had my adrenaline going. Emerging from the tunnel to the infield having cars blasting past us into turn 1 sent a chill up my back. Was the track perfect? No, but I have been to plenty of night races that had worse dust than Sunday's daytime race. To the promotors and track employees, THANK YOU VERY MUCH for a great day of racing. I arrived at the track happy to be there, and left it satisfied and much happier after watching the great ending to the feature. :thumb
