long beach grand prix

i recently visited long beach during the long beach grand prix and had a primo spot watching this car racing thing. as i have previously mentioned, i really have no clue as to what was going on. and seeing it hasn't really changed that.

apparently, these drivers (who were both from irl and champ or lemans - whatever that meant) had to go around this track (or, as i say, in circles) 85 times or in 2 hours. strange sport.

franchitti (a.k.a. ashley judd's husband) -- the second red car in the video below -- won and danica patrick came in fourth. the video below was the last lap with a bonus view of a crash at 00:35.




so i thought the race was ok. but i really came for the food that included: lumpia, pansit palabok, chicken dijon pressed sandwhich and an assortment of goodies like pork crackling, nuts, chips, chocolates, and, oh yeah, some fruits and salads.
