    ROR was completed.

    AMO was called after about 3 laps.

    I work at University of Phoenix in Southlands Mall. Well I get a couple of days off, the mall and our campus was F--ed up pretty bad. I guess people were counting 4-5 twisters in the South Aurora Area, then the storm moved out to the plains towards us.

    Ya that truck was messed up bad. Good move on calling that race Cromer, I think another lap and we all would have been F'd! I can't believe how quickly people cleared out of there haha.

    9News said there were tornadoes on the ground near Bennett, Deer Trail, and Byers. All pretty close to us! Bob Heaton (who's well trained in meteorology) said he saw three different tornadoes watching the storm from start/finish. I'm glad everyone was keeping their eyes open and being safe!

    yea, that truck was wicked looking!

    i couldn't even see through a tinted visor during the AMO race, did not even know the race was called till people started just exiting down the back straight, I hit an enormous box that flew across the track before turn 3 and that was it for me, pretty insane, and cromer I'm glad you guys called it!

    That semi was way off the road, glad we missed the brunt of the storm

    Dude when we went by they were only waving the debris flag. Then they had the red flag up by turn 2.

    It got to dark for me to see, then I get hit by some garbage and a tumble weed at the apex to turn one. I was coming in anyways, and saw the flag. The head wind was so bad on the way back, I couldn't get my toyhauler over 50. Sorry for holding up traffic.
