Back when the =E2=80=9Cblue bush=E2=80=9D was installed, many of us no =
longer raced there... originally the fence was literally at the edge of =
the track surface all the way around the track.

It was like racin in a blue alley...drop a wheel and total your car as =
it pinballed across the track.

Never raced there again

You guys have a lot of nothing down there, sure makes it easier to avoid =
stuff. At Watkins Glen, with the guardrails about one car width off the =
track, it's more like

" If you spin, they're towing you in"

Another variation on the saying: If you're going around it's both feet =

Merry Christmas.
