Concrete!

Today we witnessed the pouring of fresh concrete around the perimeter (curb) of the track.  It's nice to see the demo stage done and permanent foundations for the future being laid.  There also was quite a bit of piping activity in the last week (below).  My guess would be they are the cooling sprinklers, drainage pipes and electrical conduits.  By all accounts, this track was well engineered.

Pipe Dreams

It  appears that preparation work has now started for the first phase of laying drain pipes and possibly the irrigation pipes that will act as a turf coolant on hot summer days.  It will be interesting to see how quickly work goes now that the weather is clearing for the foreseeable future.
