Last weekend Dane, Russ, Chris, Renae, and I all went to the Nascar Race at Texas Motor Speedway. Most people know that I have been to at least one Nascar race a year since 2002 when I started working at Newell. And since Ashley and Russ live 10 miles from the speedway in Texas we decided that this year we should go there. It was a lot of fun, and a first for Dane and Russ. I think they had a good time, especially seeing all the crazy people that attend the race. I think they probably thought me and Renae were the craziest "stalkers" of all.
The group on pit road...we were able to get a pit/garage tour
Renae and me...she is my racing buddy
The boys...I think Chris was glad he had someone besides me and Renae to hang out with this year.
ZZ Top was the pre-race entertainment...either the sound system wasn't that good, or they weren't that good. The jury is still out on that one. It was cool to see them, but they sang for WAY TOO LONG!
This plane brought the pace car to the race. It landed right in front of us. If you click on the picture, you can actually see the guy giving a thumbs up...it was amazing.

Kurt Busch won the race...he had to do his victory lap driving backwards around the track.
