Cars, Security and a Peek into my Life
Readying to re-fuel.
Fire-retardant everything.
NASCAR rules state one thing per stop, as in, you can’t both refuel and change tires at the same time, it must be done in two stops.
A few seconds lost during the process, could mean falling behind 5 or 6 places out on the track.
Re-start the engine, push push push GO.
Really great weekend, and one that is still happening, hi hi from not-the-city.
Still offline, still on mini-vacation. Look at me changing, I have a sort of relaxed feeling about me almost even. Have slept in my clothes 3 days straight now, yesss.
Here’s a few photos from the weekend.
That’s me in pit lane! Closet I’ve ever been, watched them change tires and refuel even. That fluorescent vest I’m wearing is why I could.
And look at that crash! That’s the checkered flag lap, and I have a video of it, maybe one of the only ones in existence, which I’ll post tomorrow.
Till then have a good day off, I will *chucks phone into seat behind*
Neat eh!
Arrived about 5pm after work was done, and traffic was conquered. Half of which was in the Nissan Juke, NISMO edition; shift up shift down whooooot goes the boost.
Gone to opposite ends of the spectrum this week – 2 days ago I was Montreal, staying at the W Hotel and testing my shooting skills against that NHL guy, and now here I am with my boots on in a trailer, half done my first beer, watching two lunatics start a fire using 5 gallon gas can.
This is NASCAR.
After I hit publish that is IT; no more work till Tuesday, have a great long weekend too xo
Sometimes I wonder if, in olden times, horses were loved as much as we love engines today.
Engines are the new horses.
It was beautfiul out, a perfect weather day. Here’s your sunscreen reminder. Then Scott came out of nowhere, and surprised me.
Maybe my favourite part of any car race is the sound.
Those are NASCARs you hear.
But have you noticed too, that this year’s Indy isn’t as busy as past years.
I remember hearing cars for 3 days straight, and it’s now Saturday night and I’ve barely heard any races? Did it get scaled back and I don’t know?
One year I rode a giant razor like a mechanical bull.
Going again tomorrow!
