"Regarding Mark Meynell's recent excellent aerial photos of California's Costa Mesa Speedway: some viewers might assume that the large oval prominent in the pictures is the speedway venue; however, it should be pointed out that the speedway is actually the less-obvious oval visible right-of-center in the top photo, and left of center in the bottom photo. The Costa Mesa speedway track is only approximately 100 meters in length. The larger oval is the 400-meter athletics track of a neighboring school."
