Wanted to add a little more here. Ryan Tuerck's pit area had some tables set up under the shade, along with some snacks and drinks - and as hot as it was the drinks were very welcome, as we'd emptied the cooler we brought with us during the top 32. It was great for my son to meet several racers, and you get a real good look at the pit crews working on the cars. They like to talk to the fans too, a real up close experience.
The guys over at RMR were great too. We met quite a few crew members and Dai, and hung out there with lilgoat and dengel for awhile. We missed Rhys, he was coolin' it in the trailer, but it was great to see him drive.
