| Saw on ESPN this morning that NASCAR and Pocono are now reviewing the process to evacuate the track in case of bad weather. NASCAR released and statement saying that it was the tracks responsibility to evacuate the track. Kind of seemed like NASCAR was throwing Pocono under the bus on this one. |

| | smh | Either way, it's even worse than being in the open.
I don't know why but I'm still surprised to see how many people don't know what to do when there's lightning out. |
