Parking was the easiest and fastest I've ever experienced at a Bug-In. Of course, I've gone to Bug-Ins 24 through 31 and showed a car every year. This was my first year not showing a car. Maybe that's why... but we got there at 8am, rolled right up to the second row in the parking lot up front, and walked in shortly after 8am. Sure was nice compared to every other year of waiting from o'dark thirty pre-dawn till the gates opened.

Good seeing everyone, indeed! Thanks for the photo opp. on that too, everyone.

I wasn't there, but it can't be as bad as Vegas is every year.

I had the same experience as Danny... it really sucked... plus they way they set up the queues, people that got there 20 minutes after me got in before I did. WTF is up with that!

Thats the fault of the Speedway.  I talked to one of the Bug In guys and they were pulling their hair out over it.
