It was a beautiful day. Drivers from 26 countries here. I was lucky enough to be in the middle of a lot of action. Kyle Petty, Buddy Rice, Wayne Taylor, Scott Pruett, Danica Patrick, Hurley Haywood, David Donohue, Alex Gurney, Jimmie Johnson, Jimmy Vassar, Jack Baldwin, Boris Said, Colin Braun, JP Montoya, Dario Franchitti, Scott Dixon, motorcycle legends Scott Russell, Jeff Ward, Jason Pridmore, etc.
There was a 24 minute exhibition race of vintage race cars. Awesome machines.
