Long Beach Grand Prix can't wait every year it is a staple of my vacation and make sure I take off one day a year to go visit this great place unlike it in the world where you can be driving on the street on Wednesday by Thursday they have it shut down and by Friday they are racing down the street the same streets you can give you walking by or driving on the day before it's amazing experience very loud recommend bringing headphones to mask the sounds of the Open Exhaust from the engines.
