Well, HELLO Friends! It certainly has been a while! I hope this finds you well and basking in the glow of the holiday season. It is a very busy time of year for this Nascar Wife, as I am sure it is for most of you.
And, of course, in the midst of all the hustle and bustle of the holiday preparations, we HAD to make time to watch the BIG RACE! It was a huge sacrifice (insert sarcasm), but sometimes sacrifice is necessary for a Happy Life ;-)
I'm sure you have all heard the discussions about the new system Nascar instituted this past year - pro and con. And each viewpoint has its merits, but I must say I thought it was great for the sport. I liked not knowing who the champion was going to be until the end of the last race. It kept us engaged and looking forward to each and every race right up til the end!
I am anxious to see the changes that will be made for next year. I honestly have not paid much attention to all the announcements yet. I figure there will be plenty of time for that after the winter doldrums set in!
Hubby and I will soon start our serious planning for our racing & camping for 2015. We already have our Spring & Fall Dover tickets (YIPPEE!!!!) so now we need to decide which other races we can make fit our work schedules. It will probably be at least one Martinsville trip ... okay, probably two! I would love to go to Daytona, but the timing on that one makes it difficult for us to get there. So I'm thinking this might the year for Loudon. Or maybe Michigan. Has anyone been to either race? I'd love to hear your thoughts and advice!
I am also starting to think about what I want to blog about in 2015. Look for upcoming posts on our trip to Charlotte and the Hall of Fame, the life of a pit crew member, kids and Nascar, and track food and fashion! And that's a just a few of the ideas I have! I know that as the season progresses I will have lots more to say (you've probably noticed that I am never at a loss for words or opinions!).
Until then I want to wish you and your family good health and good times!
I usually attend the June Michigan race. It is quite the party! Turn 1 seems to be a quieter section (from what I've seen) and is close to the tunnel to get back and forth to the fan zone and stands. There are other campgrounds outside the track but I am not familiar with them or pricing.
