Its Monday after the Spring NASCAR race at Texas Motor Speedway. We've gone to the races pretty consistently over the years. We've missed a lot but generally we take in at least one race per year, although not always the main event. Texas has 2 Cup races per year. The past two years we have rented an RV and camped out with the other 10's of thousands of crazed fans and have been fortunate enough to hang out with some real race and camping veterans. This year, we decided to go on the cheap and we set up a tent on our friends RV site. It worked out very well. We went out Friday night, saw the Pat Green concert, saw the race on Saturday, hung out some more then went home Sunday before all the madness and the cold front.
Anyway you cut it though, its usually a wild and wooly weekend. Friday night was fun, we hung out at the RV after the concert and actually took it pretty easy. Saturday the weather was great and we spent the day down at the track, checking out the Nascar practice, the vendors and the race.
Saturday night, wow, its amazing was a bit of alcohol, nice weather and plastic trinkets will make some women do. Heck, some of them didn't even need the trinkets.... Like lots of other major events where there is camping facilities of this sort, car races, motorcycle rallies, etc, it can get pretty wild. I think its something that you really have to experience in person though as I don't think words can truly describe the scene.
Anyway, much thanks to Brenda and Charles, Brad and everyone else for their hospitality as always.
Picture dump will follow! Stay tuned.
