Evan,Alex was walking around near the water box around the time of the semi finals.I'll tell you what I saw.There was nobody maintaining the water box for the first 3 or 4 rounds.Cars were dragging water up and guys were doing burnouts in puddles in the right lane.Some were smoking the left tire and the right tire was spinning in water.Finally in the afternoon there were 2 guys sweeping the rocks and spreading the water.When they tried to use the blower I thought the guy was going into cardiac arrest pulling the starter cord.Didn't start and they just walked away from it.
