I was there. I believe we saw snowflakes.Early 90s, freezing while watching Roberto Guerrero spin out on the parade lap from the pole position.
I had the exact opposite experience. Went to a practice day with my company on an outing in the late 90s to a tent in the infield. It was in the low 50s and drizzly/windy off and on. We were all bored and miserable. We all left as soon as we could. NOBODY stayed the whole time.Haven't been since I was a little kid. All I really remember is absolutely broiling under the sun and being bored as hell.
My family's old house had a pool and a great back deck. Race on the radio and everyone hanging around outside was an annual event.Never been to an actual race, even though Ive lived here all my life. I always spend the day outdoors gardening, doing yard work, etc with the radio on listening to it in the background.
