This is Kurt and I with our friends Tim and Angel on the track at Watkin's Glen. After the race on Sunday we got to walk the track back to our campsite. It was so cool the track was covered in pieces of rubber from the tires. We're hoping that the pieces we picked up are off of Dale Jr's car.
This is the view from the straight away before the cars head up through what they call the Esses. This hill doesn't look that steep but it was quite a walk but well worth it.
Saturday afternoon after the Nationwide race we walked over the track and up the hill near where all the race car haulers are parked and we got to see Boris Said up close and personal. Angel was brave enough to ask him for a hug and she got to hug him. It was the highlight of her weekend, that's all she talked about. Too bad I wasn't thinking fast enough I could have gotten a picture with him. Oh well, live and learn.
This is the view from our seats, we sat right across from the exit at pit road. We had a good view of the cars coming back out onto the track. In the background you can see Jr's car leaving pit road. Jr started out strong and lead laps on 2 separate occasions. Unfortunately he had a few problems with his car and ended up finishing around 20th or so. We had a great weekend, despite the rain and the fact that our tent flooded Saturday night. Luckily our friends Shane and Jackie had their camper their and let us crash in the camper. It was close quarters but tons of fun. Hopefully Kurt and I will actually be home for a while now.
