HAMPTON, Ga. (AP) -- The Atlanta Motor Speedway looks as if it was in a high-speed crash.
Entire sections of its grandstand and luxury boxes are shredded. Oak trees, flagpoles and a light tower are snapped. On some of the speedway's condominiums, the roof is caved in, windows are shattered.

Holy cats! The place was totally pixelated!
Yeah its bad, But all those rich folks with sky boxes are insured as is the Speedway , no one was killed and no trailers destroyed.
LOL
Talk about a tragedy. It's all I can do to hold it together. How will I go on? /wink
WOW!
Well, we did have people die in this are last night from storm related injuries and the clean up this morning. Glad you didn't.
Hey don't waste any emotional capital over my remark daddydoo. I'm truly sorry about the kid who drowned down there. Not concerned in the least about the loss of a NASCAR marketing arena. It'll get cleaned up and it's back to selling cock stiffeners (Viagra) and the beer to wash them down with. Go Dale!! YeeHaw.
Not just the kid BTW. No nascar fan here (I like F1 myself), but we got rolled pretty bad. Spent some time in the basement between the spiral clouds and light shows at our house which was not even close to the real amusement.
Upon entering the Speedway, all the tornado could do were left turns.
