Enjoyed opening night; great racing, visiting with friends I hadn't seen since last season in many cases, and the Mrs. came with me for the first time in a long while which made it pretty near perfect. The only fly in the ointment came in trying to exit the lower parking lot. Apparently there was a multi vehicle melee on Fairfax Road which brought the line exiting the parking lot to a standstill for several minutes. Don't know for sure what happened, but I did see at least three damaged vehicles. When there is a large crowd and vehicles are parked across the street, it results in cars approaching from multiple directions, as well as pedestrian traffic. Last year, there was a police presence after some of the big races, and it would be a good idea if that would occur on a regular basis to avoid situations such as that which developed last night.
Thanks to the management for providing a very entertaining program of all open wheel cars and for the five dollar admission price for next weeks' show. See everyone there next week!
