Final race at the Iowa Speedway today. Seems they are already slacking, haven't posted a relevant schedule for the day... vendors aren't really showing up either, they usually have a decent midway, but didn't have but the Chevy display yesterday. I did actually see a Official Truck of Nascar last night, which was a Ford.... The track is heavily sponsored by Chevrolet, rarely see a Ford in the official capacity like that.

The truck was just outside of the fence at the Iowa Speedway. It was at the end of what would be the vendors midway.

outside dims are 42' x 72'. It will have an office type area, mainly dry storage and temp control area, that area will likely be about 22' x 14', then have storage above it.
