I like the track and scene around it. Bummer with the rain.

In reply to TJ Moreshead. @Rudy F they spent a lot of money putting seats up in Chicago just to take them down in a week. Why can't we spend that money on new seats and amenities on a vacant track like pikes peak and actually take the cup series somewhere they haven't been on the 4th

view of the track… that’s a road course/street race vs oval thing you have to accept. Try stage rally, you see one corner of one stage and the cars are all 1-2 minutes apart. There are ways to follow the race besides what your eyes can see live in front of you. Also I can recall people being struck by lightening at the lakefront in recent years. It’s been lightening all night and this morning (sunday) as I type this too, radar shows huge lingering storm.

Definitely understand the frustration with the lightning policy and cancellation. But we live 4 miles south of the course and got absolutely hammered with a thunderstorm and flooding. Wrigley Field is 4 miles north and the Cubs game didn’t start until after 9 PM. So having the storm split around downtown on both sides seems like something you couldn’t have foreseen based on the radar and forecast

In reply to TJ Moreshead. @Jiminy Cricket a road race on the 4th of July will never match the edge of your seat excitement behind a superspeedway or a 2.0 mile track respectfully. If they wanna keep trying new things fine, but maybe try something the core fan base has been saying like getting some lights at Talladega and trying an independence day race there

I hear you. I knew it would be a train wreck for real race fans. It’s hard to watch on t.v. I hope it works out still though.
