on a whim, a friend of mine agreed to go to martinsville back in march. i had always wanted to go, but never knew anyone else that was interested in going. never watched a race until then. it was sooooo much fun, even though it was snowing and sleeting on the way up, and we just about froze to death in the stands. ever since then, i have been hooked. haven’t missed a single race, and went to the richmond race in may, and am going to richmond again in september for my birthday! wish i could go to martinsville in october, but don’t have anyone who wants to go with me. soooo much fun though! love the smell, the roar of the engines, and the excitement of the crowd! definitely an experience :)

i went to the federated autoparts nationwide race in lebanon, tn at the nashville superspeedway. before i was a fan, i used to see the races on t.v. and be like, “mmk, watching cars go in a circle for hours…?” and then i actually went to a race and it was so much fun! i think, even if you aren’t a big fan of nascar, you would enjoy it. the energy from the crowd is so contagious, you get really into the race! i think it’s VERY worth doing so, if you get a chance, go!
p.s. – i’m a HUUUUGE fan of kyle busch! ;)
p.p.s. – the boyfriend and i are currently planning a trip to bristol. i’m soo excited!

952 Is tired, and content.
Got credentials once, for qualifying.
It was rad. I’m not a huge NASCAR fan, but credentials rock-out.
By far the best experience I’ve had at a NASCAR track, other than doing a ride along at 170mph+.

The first time I went I saw two guys wearing headphones and I asked what they were listening to. The told me they could hear the spotter and crew talking with the driver . I went down to rent a set so I could hear but they had rented all of them. I bought a scanner and headphones for $450 ( I got the best) and never go to the races without them.

I went to the Coca-Cola 600 at Lowe’s Motor Speedway over Memorial Day Weekend. It was very hot and loud. If I ever go to another race, I want to be one of the people tailgating. That is definitely more fun than watching the race.
