We got to go to the races today! We were so excited ever since we watched that movie Cars! We got to see some real race cars up close. Our Daddy has a cousin that works on the race cars and he got us into the race and right down to pit row! Here is his car. They just lifted the body right off of the motor!
Pit row is right next to the drag strip so we could look through the fence to see the different cars and motorcycles racing. By the way, this picture is brought to you by Coca-Cola.
It was so loud we couldn't even believe it! You could feel your lungs shaking! We had these nifty little earplugs to keep our ears safe. They felt kind of weird though, we didn't like them.
While they were working on the car to get it ready we watched the pro stock motorcycle races. They said that the weather was perfect for racing and they broke a few records today! You can click on the video to see how fast they were going!
After the motorcycle races they put the car together and headed for the track. They took third place and they went over 250 miles an hour! It was SO COOL!
