Stock Car Racing in the Snow?

On Saturday, I got to experience something totally, well, legendary. At Mercer Speedway in Mercer, PA they had a 150 lap endro race. That was crazy! I got to go with my dad. It consisted of 115 cars trying to go around a 3/8 mile track. Just nuts! Of course there were mechanical failures and stuff, so the cars slowly but surely began to disappear. What was funny is they all started the race being different colors. At the end of the race, every car was brown from all the mud. It is just weird to be watching dirt track racing in the middle of winter. Now rest assured, my dad and I like it so much, we are hoping to do it again next year.
