Hi,
Lucky you
A shame you didn't get to see the race.
I love race tracks, and make a point of visiting them when I'm in the neighborhood. I've seen races at Daytona and Sebring. I've never seen the Brickyard, Nürburgring, or Le Mans. And those are the three I'd most like to see.

Marching through those banked turns, I realized they are really banked a lot more than they look on TV. After the parade, we went to the infield to watch the race. Then it started pouring rain, and everyone had to duck under tarps. I think that was like the only time the Indy 500 got postponed. So lucky me has never seen the race live. But I did get to march around the track until one leg was shorter than the other, and swim in the infield.
