There is No Defence Against This

Nov 10 2014

This is Bob, and he’s quite nice.

He also has earned the nickname, “Toughest Guy in NASCAR”.

We are complete opposites – him a foot and a half taller, and 2.5 times heavier.

So if Bob and I were to fight,
it wouldn’t really be one.

His fist is the size of my head.

Only defence I have after it hits me, is to spit my teeth at him before running away.

(technically my brain and words could be a defence, or my ‘run up the chest knee to the jaw’ move, but for the most part, the title is accurate.)

A Photography Dichotomy

May 27 2014

Taken at the NASCAR race.

Same media passes, so same access…

…so imagine how I looked*, standing next to a sea of cameras like that, taking photos with my phone.

But!

In a race to post said photos online, guess who’d win…

* oh Keri comb your hair. Don’t worry though, since I was standing in pit lane during the start of the race, all the TV and other cameras on the other side, capturing that rats-nest *hangs head*

The Big Crash at the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series

May 20 2014

Big crash on the last lap at the 1st race of the 2014 NASCAR Canadian Tire Series, held at Mosport.

That’s about 100 mph.

Ray Courtemanche Jr., of Montreal, and Canadian Touring Car Championship veteran Bob Attrell of Brampton, on Sunday, May 18 2014.

And see me flinch while filming? Ha.

And this is why people love NASCAR.

Rustye Number 9 in NASCAR

May 20 2014

This past weekend I cheered on my friend Russ Bond, in his first NASCAR race.

He competed in the 1st race of 2014’s NASCAR Canadian Tire Series, held at Mosport.

Here he is mid-wave.

See the full wave here, which we find quite funny, but the internet does not, which makes no sense, and is like the ‘texting with this bear‘ thing all over again.
