NASCAR in the Desert

The sound of cheering fans and the roar of the engines are looming in the distance as the 2009 NASCAR race comes to the Las Vegas Speedway. With NASCAR coming to the desert our house is full of excitement. The past few years my dad has had to work the NASCAR event and to our benefit he gets a few special passes we can take advantage of and this year is no different. These passes ROCK!!! They get us access to many of the hot spots like the neon garage, the infield, winners circle and the ability to watch the race from many wonderful untold locations. My dad loves the ability to use our toy hauler and rhino over the weekend so he has a place to rest up before he has to work. The rhino even gets it own special pass that allows us to drive it wherever we want (driving the rhino around is one of Matt's favorite parts.)

Matt is like a kid in a candy store when NASCAR comes to town. He has the weekend already planned out for us. He even scored seat tickets for Saturday's race. I never thought I would like race cars or ever understand the fun of watching a car go around and around in a circle...but I do. I can't wait to see the drivers up close and personal.

To Matt who is a true Robby Gordon fan...yes that was sweet maneuvering he did on the grass. Maybe he needs to stick with off road racing and leave the pavement for my guy.

GO NASCAR!!!!
