The Race

See what we did? The best I can determine, we were in the blue somewhere above the S and the T. This was during the pre-race show. It was Rusty Wallace's last race at Bristol. We also made an American flag during the National Anthem which was pretty cool. We could see it on the TV monitors. The race was fun...a little tense at first. Usually we take a car to the track the day before and double park it so we can get a good parking place. Then when we get there with the 2nd car, we move it so they both fit in. Well, there was a rain delay on the Friday night race so we didn't get to do that. We left about 12:30 for a 7:30 race. (the track is about 20 minutes away). Anyways, we were in two cars. My SIL was under the impression that her husband would double park his car and then we would take hers and mess around Bristol for a while. Well, wires got crossed and they got in a fight. I have never seen them argue before. Talk about uncomfortable!! But they eventually got over it and all was well. Except that we were at the race about 5 hours early. But in a way it was nice because we got to ride the elevator up to our sits. Those steps are a BITCH. They are practically horizontal. Tony had a good finish....top 10. He is already in the points race no matter how he finishes. Tammy....I did pull for the Elliot Sadler M&M's car. He ran realy well. I even bought some M&M's at the race! LOL Now all my muscles ache. When we left the race, since we parked in a different place, we had trouble finding out how to get to the car. Ended up going down a lot of steps and then climbing back UP them!! Then a HUGE hill. I was worn out!!!! And I am soooo sore today. Worked muscles I didn't know I had. (Oh, and I didn't take my camera in so no pics.)
I talk with Mitch's wife, Judy tonight. She was having a hard time. I told her that maybe she needed to think about cleaning out Mitch's clothes....it has been about 1 1/2 years now, and I told her I would be glad to help her do it. So....when she is ready. Gotta run now....later!
