 Speaking from OUR standpoint, We had a ball,  we helped setup
on Friday, worked Shutdown position on sat. and did relief for 
the sunday shutdown, until we had to leave for Louisville at 11:30.
wish we could have stayed till the end of the day...
Its IMPRESSIVE to stand down there at the shutdown, and listen to the
runs, watch them come the course length, (VERY good binoculars)
 and then get the thumbs-up for a good run from the drivers/riders..
(and a real downer, when someone has a problem)
but Very glad that no one got hurt...

Thanks to those that gave us relief at lunch time on Sat.
(really needed that potty break)   :-)

Yep, good weather, except for the wind gust that lifted the roof
off the officials tables, but that rain at 4:30pm did feel good.
shame it put an end to racing that day... but seeing 4 bolts of
lightning at once, do make you think...


and thanks to ETCA for allowing us to be part of a great event
we will be back..schedule permitting..
(been out of racing way too long...)
