Glad he did well. I was kind of hoping that they would have started the race a little earlier on Saturday, after opening at 9 am. But, it is what it was.
It is a hard drive from where I live. I went out 22/30 to 43 thru some 45+ miles of nothingness and narrow 2 lane roads. Toke us about 2 1/2 hours each way. I will go back next year though.
