This is WAY cool!!!
ReplyDeleteThe cities that hold these races bring millons of dollars into town during the event.
Sure, people will complain about streets being closed at certain times, but these are great events to attend.
I would really like to see the Indy car series return to Dover. They were great events too but were not well advertised.
