Exactly. The worst part is that is the room where all the really historic stuff is on display. Prototypes, race cars, 1-of-1 type cars. Sucks a lot.

Live cam for the skydome isn't on right now, obviously. But you can see what appears to be some workers milling around in the nostalgia area cam.

Here's hoping they can get the rest of the cars out of there and that nobody gets hurt trying.
