phaithful

I went with the engineering team to the Irwindale Speedway to watch the races. It was my first time watching a car race so it was pretty exciting. I doubt I'll ever do it again, but it was a very fun time.

There were about 30 of us camping out on the roof top of the ticket booth. Although it was a bit chilly it was great company. We had some drinks and food (hot dogs, burgers, potato salad, and HOT beans).

Brrr.... the Cold

I swear, at one point it was so cold that I wanted to stick my hands in the pot of beans just to warm them up. Luckily the wind died down and the taquilla shot kicked in, *thanks Winnie*.

The Races

There were 5 races and a few wrecks. I really enjoyed watching the really small cars driven by the 8 - 10 year olds running the inside track. I can't believe those kids drive just as well as the adults, better even, because they didn't even crash into one another. Haha... I makes me want to go out and buy one of those small cars just so I can go left on the lap a few times.

All in all, an excellent night! Varooooooom!!!!!
