THAT’s RACING DEFINITION:
1--When a small part costing just a few dollars fails and stops a race
car- 'that’s racing' 2-- When you race a competitor for 500 miles and
lose to him by just a few feet, 'that’s racing' 3-- When a hot dog
wrapper blows out of the stands, gets caught across the air vent on the front
of your car and causes your engine to overheat, 'that’s racing '
I LOVE RACING
I love getting up early and going to the track
Taking all your gear and never looking back.
I love tailgating, barbecue and beer,
Camping out, with your favorite driver's flag in the air.
I love shopping at the trailers and looking
for all the free stuff,
Souvenirs and Memorabilia, you can never have enough!
I love the National Anthem and the Flag we stand facing, I'm proud of this
country that has the best racing.
I love the roar of
the engines, the crowd and all the noise, when they wave the green flag
and D.W. yells
"Boogity Boogity Boogity Let's Go Racin' Boys!"
Most of all, I love my racing family and friends
for all the love and fun that knowing them lends.
