The aftermath of the USGP 05

[Plectraholica]

I dont seem to remember seeing this anywhere else after the USGP, but I took these pictures. I thought that Id share a bit of uncovered history.

Green Mess

Was this shown on any news? I dont recall ever seeing it.

The pics are shot adjacent to gate 6. Thats Georgetown Rd in the background.

not showing up here dude

[Plectraholica]

Really? It showed up fine here. Dang.

Basically, its a picture of a melted green gooey mess of what used to be porta-potties lined up in a row. Someone obviously was upset with the race or something and set them ablaze.

Smart. You're mad at F1 or whoever, so set portable shitters on fire? Real classy.

OK Plec, got it now. Amazing pics - so clear I can almost smell it...

How do you know this has anything to do with the whole F-1 thing? Your web page says you took the photo 2 weeks after the race. How do you know that is wasn't a bunch of kids the night before you rode your bike by?

That myth was debunked on that discovery channel show with those geeks who try that kind of stuff...

Forget what it's called...

Also cell phones can't ignite gas fumes at the gas station...

And the 5 second rule doesnt matter either...

and

other stuff....

I really dont know Outlaw, but it is all too coincidental.

I do know that after each race, these porta-potties on IMS property are gone within the next day, being that this set was still here, leads me to believe that it had happened during or shortly after the race. I could be wrong though.....

No way, not out Speedway kids.

Well, at least it wasn't a motorhome, like the old days at the Glen.

Or a car
Or a bus
Or 15 cars like 1979...

I like that show. My kids are going to be upset about the 5 second rule, though.
