They were doing a Bryan Clauson "Celebration of Life".
Tornado destroyed a Starbucks not far from the track
Tornado= "Circular Insanity", right?

My parents drove out for the ceremony. They said the storms were pretty wicked. Tornado touched down about five miles from the track.

Not to hijack a thread here, but I guess this type of event poses another question. Do any of the tracks have an emergency action plan for something like that? IE these locations are where we try to get the spectators and participates shelter etc. I know if something like that happened at the Grove/Lincoln I know what I would be doing, but I kinda doubt there is anything "formalized" for a severe weather event like that that the track has layed out. I could be wrong though.
Just an unlikely thing to ever happen, but obviously the outcome could be terrible if it were realized.
