Wasn't that a great race yesterday!

To think that Bristol, at a half mile, is just a 1/6th mile larger than LIR.  It's mindboggling to think how much and how many are sqeezed into such a small area.

I think it's all in the banking of the corners. Great racing none the less.

What record was that?  Number of fans in attendance at a race?

A few years ago I acquired a Nascar game for my computer.  Bristol was the track I liked to drive the most.  Lots of action.  It was sometimes even hard to make around one lap without an incident.  Some of the other tracks - the 2 miler's were somewhat boring in comparison - those mostly you just hold the pedal down and steer - on some if you get out of the draft you end up just going round and round all alone.  I'd love to go and see a live race at Bristol.

The record was for the most people doing the wave at a sporting event or something like that. 160,000 people doing the wave was pretty cool too see, and to be a part of was pretty cool too.
