Edmonton at 200mph
 
For the past 5 years I have worked the Champ/IRL races here in Edmonton as a corner worker. I typically blue flag or yellow flag and have worked turns 3, 6, 10, and 11 twice now. It is an amazing event that i look forward to every single year. The best part is that the track gives me great opportunities to shoot our skyline:>

just because your city has the single largest 'big city' issue with inadequacy and must attempt to make up for a crappy city with towers...
