Phew! Now that that’s behind us we can move forward – into another really terrific day of racing at Bandimere Speedway. We have talked endlessly about the fans at this facility, and they just have to be mentioned again. They not only turned out in huge numbers, just like yesterday, but when it rained again today they hung in there until it stopped, and then cheered their way through another night session that was nothing short of terrific. Maybe we’re jaded, but at most facilities 10 minutes of rain usually results in more than 50 percent of the fans bailing out for the day. That just doesn’t happen up here. No more than 10 percent of the people bailed because of the rain, and that speaks volumes for the Denver area fans and for the Bandimere family, a group that understands what customer service really means. It’s a shame, but you can count the tracks like this one on one hand, when in truth, every national event facility should be as fan-friendly as this one is.
It is really late as we’re writing this, and there comes that time of day (or night) when the words just won’t keep coming, and this is one of them, so we’re going to let the pictures tell today’s story.
