What a Farce! 20 laps in and already about 20 crashes. Red Flagged right now. Let’s just hope they cancel the whole thing. Who thought this was a good idea? Track too narrow, too bumpy, too stupid. This ain’t racing. This is a Demo Derby. ---

The bridge is cool…or would be if they could ever finish 3 or 4 laps without a yellow. ---

You couldn’t go 2 wide with Go-Karts on most of this track. Unbelievable. ---

2nd red. This race has been a chore to watch. But it’s not like I had any thing else to do. ---

Yep. Same boat. Too smokie and hot to go out with the dogs. I suppose I could watch the Woman’s Volleyball game for the 8th time. ---

I think maybe the pace car has most laps in the lead. 😁 ---

I don’t know which is worse, the Grand Prix in Nashville or [the one here that was in a freakin’ _parking lot!_](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2002_Grand_Prix_of_Washington_D.C.) Parking lots are where you send [students,](https://youtu.be/qbPYWaisvK0?t=7) not professional drivers.
