It's All Over

As I walked through the restaurant at the Hyatt Hotel this
morning (that’s where the awards show was held last night) I ran into several
people who said, “I’ll see you in eighty-five days.” That fact that they knew
how many days it was until the first race of the 2010 season was very
interesting, or scary, or both. Of course, since I haven’t counted, I’ll have
to take their word for it, but since more than one said it I guess it’s true.
Or at least, close. Others walked by and said, “I’m glad it’s over.” And that’s
a sentiment that I heard a lot over the past few days. As I always say, as much
as I love drag racing, when the last race is over I really am ready to put my
feet up, sit back and relax. And then, when the season is about to get underway
again (in eighty-five days), I’m ready to go out and begin another new year. For
now, though, let’s just celebrate a great season, a season that ended with a
bang at Pomona.
