For those of you who don't know, we are a Nascar family. Each of us has a driver or car we cheer for. Brad's family watches it every week, but I only watch the Vegas (and sometimes Phoenix) race. We got sweet tickets this year with pit passes, and hospitality tent passes and garage passes, and parking passes, etc. (Thanks Napa)Brad, Stephanie, and MaKayla went to Sat/Sun race and Doug and I drove down Sat. night. We stayed at the closest hotel to the racetrack, and got up early Sunday. Doug and MaKayla went in to the pits and she (and Stephanie) even got to start one of the cars. My guy #18 Kyle Bush started last and he won!!!! It is really the car I cheer for: the "M&M" car. It is painted so cool. MaKayla and I had a bet, that our driver would win, so I won the bet. She cheers for #24 Jeff Gordon. They were back and forth all day, but mine pulled ahead in the last few laps. My favorite part of the pre-race show is when the Thunderbirds fly in formation overhead. It is magnificant. They also had The Flying Elvis's land on the field in their parachutes.

That looks so fun. I knew you were going to the races, but I didn't know you were going to be down in the pits. Great photos.
Oh, and the Thunderbirds are always a huge favorite of mine too.
Congrats to you and M&M.
I also cheer for #24 Jeff
Go #39!
