A Little Culture


We even got to see a crash, one car just hit the side of the track, but it was pretty cool!

A few weekends ago we went with some friends to the speedway (that we didn't know was 10 minutes from our house). It was so much fun, kind of an adrenalin pumping experience:) The kids really liked it, even the incredible noise of the engines! The best part was "intermission" where they had people from the audience race each other. The winner was an old guy w/ a pretty smokin' corvette! But there was a souped up turbo geo that gave him a run for his money:) It reminded me of one summer in high school that my friend Phillip and I went up in the mountains somewhere by Lolo where there was a big family reunion, and everybody had these souped up, trashed cars/trucks and they raced them in a meadow. We dubbed them "The Redneck Races," - Good times:) I think we will definitely be going back there again!
