    This and 2020 Charlotte Roval for Xfinity are the two craziest Road Course races in that time 5 years
    Wish I was able to watch the 2016 race but the race looked a lot of fun

    0:21 Ayo! That's me. I'm now a proper flagger. It's always funny seeing myself in random old clips from when I was too young to actually flag.

    2017 Road America was also crazy. There were many crashes and the two leaders crashes in the final corner with 2 to go. Jeremy Clements was the first to get out of the grass and he ended up winning the race.

    I watched this after it happened, I was racing at the old Columbus Motor Speedway, and it got so close to us that the backside of the pits got a downpour, and the other side of the track, the grandstands got another downpour, but the racing surface stayed dry somehow. I always remember this race with my race, and both were some of my favorite races of all time

    2014 road america was also a rain race. Brendan gaughan won by gambling not putting and running on the slower rain track tires. I was there and it was wild

    2016: USA Network airs a NASCAR race due to NBC covering the Olympics.
    2022: USA Network airs NASCAR races because NBCSN shut down.

    I was at this race at the start finish line. The rain didn’t start until after lap 2 like mentioned, but it never stopped throughout the race. The funny thing is right when the race ended, a downpour started

    • @bwman1516
