Storms hit Beech Bend Raceway Park

While shooting photos of the NHRA National Hot Reunion at Beech Bend Raceway Park on Friday 6-17-11 this cloud and storm came up. Needless to say I didn't hang around the drag track and shot this photo as I was taking my photo equipment back to the car. The wind was very strong and I wasn't sure what was going to take place here. The storm didn't last long and didn't do any damage or very little. The good thing no injuries. Today (Saturday 6-18-11) has started out bad as well with rain.

Personally I hope it rains the event and every drag event out Dallas doesn't promote our circle track right so I hope the drags fail miserably just my opinion

well anonymous i for one hate that you fill this way. late friday night as i drove down scottsville rd it was great to see NO VACANCY!
LIGHTING up all the motel and hotels and 1to2 hour wait at restaurants, so if you dont understand what i am saying that is money being spent here in BG and a much needed boost to our economy here, so please step back and take a look at the big picture and support these events and quit crying about dallas not doing this and that , besides i was at beech bend all weekend and i seen and talked to a lot of oval track racers and fans and belive i or not we had a great time.. cant wait till this weekend going to do it all over again with a bunch of wild hogs...
