Recent emergency appendectomy prevented me from going last weekend. What kind of track conditions did they have? Do you think the suites will provide a good vantage point? Just curious, thanks in advance.

The wind died at dusk and that helped alot. We had our backs to the suites just in case we needed a windbreak

All in all, the best show I've seen at Eldora in a long time. Tolerable dust, lotsa passing and the checkered at around 10.

That's pretty much how I would sum it up. If the track is at least that good for the rest of the year, then all races there should be good ones.
