Race Day Postponed!!!

Well darn!!! We were all set to go racing and I did the wrong thing......I looked at the weather report. I guess I should be happy I did, becuase what I saw wasn't good. 80% chance of rain everyday. It was looking like a long weekend in the hotel. At the last minute I decided to call Pat Jeffron @ No Problem Raceway and heard the news....NHRA had postponed the event for a couple of weeks. Well I guess I should be happy that we didn't have to drive for 18 hours only to turn around and head home. So I guess it all ended up well. But man am I ready to get back to the track.

Last weekend E. Lowe took his car out and had some fun and went a couple of rounds, it was fun to be back at the track. So I guess I will have to wait a couple of weeks to try out some new safety equipment.

I hope to see you out at the track.

luv,

Gearing up for the Show!!!

Hey, I am sitting here watching NHRA drag racing. Man am I ready to get back in the drivers seat. We have been very busy in the off season, in fact this past week we spent out in Prescott, AZ visiting Embry-Riddle's other campus. We flew out on Tuesday and returned home Friday evening. This is the furthest west I have ever traveled and was in awe of the beautiful senery that was breath taking. Obviously, we are right around the corner of the Daytona Beach campus, but it was a lot of fun to visit the other main campus. If hiking, biking and horseback riding is your thing, this campus has it all.



Now it is time to look towards the 2008 racing season. We are kicking off the racing action at No Problem Raceway this weekend for the NHRA division 4 race. There have been some changes in our safety up grades with our boots and gloves. So this weekend will be a time to get used to the new equipment. I will let you know how it comes out.



My schedule is posted on the webiste, so if you are in the area, make sure you stop by and say HI. I am going to put up my merchandise very soon. I have new t-shirts that are soon to be delivered as well as some really cool new items, so make sure you check back.



I guess that is all of the news for now. We are almost finished with the remodeling in the house. I have a laundry room that will be going in next week, YES!!! We are enjoying the new bathrooms and Nitro has a new doggie door that has made his life so much easier for him to chase the bad kitties!!!!

P.S. A change in the schedule. The NHRA division 4 race scheduled for this weekend has been postponed until the first weekend of March. See ya there.
