I didn't enjoy the pole shuffle either. The idea is neat but the reality is that with it being so short of laps in each segment, the drivers don't have enough to get the cars sorted out before the segment ends.
The parade of states is always nice, just feel really bad for the Illinois drivers. I'd wear the balaclava and a fully blank suit so no one would recognize me if I had to walk with that flag.
FOR THE RECORD: I am a life-long resident of downstate Illinois aka the good area
