Keeping you in the loop

Okay, so it has been a while since I have checked in. A lot has been going on at Larsen Motorsports.....all good, but very very busy. First since the Gators we went down to South Florida to the Barrett Jackson auto auction in West Palm Beach. Chris took the 41 Willys Jet Pro Mod down to help out the Vedalo HD sunglass company to do a display. Now if you haven't checked out the sponsor page and link to their page, www.vedalohd.com
you need to because they have come out with some amazing styles and the lenses are the best. So check them out. Well enough of a plug back to business. I had never been there and was amazed at the cars. Chris had his eye on this really cute little 1932 Ford, but he had to go home so too bad for him or was it. I had a little surprise waiting for him. The car went up on the auction block the next day and I bid on it and won it for him. I was going to surprise him the next day, but guess who was watching TV. Well did he get a surprise. The rest of the event went amazing, and Chris got his car.

No rest and time to enjoy, we had to hit the road for Belle Rose, LA to meet back up with PeeWee and the club!!!! We went back to No Problem Raceway for the Jegs Cajun Nationals. We had a wonderful time and ate at Garrison's. Now some people may think that Garrison's is a restaurant, but it is the best place to eat in Louisiana and it is at the track. A fellow racer holds this amazing party at the larger races has Pee Wee cook up a storm. I would like to say I enjoyed the racing as much as the food, but after the craw fish boil on Saturday night, the food won.

After the final run on Sunday evening we hit the road to get Andrew back in school and we had to get things set up for our next show in Lakeland. The famous Sun N Fun airshow always if fun, but a lot of rain had all of the vendors calling it the Mud N Fun. When we arrived at our booth space it was a challenge to say the least to get the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical jet dragster trailer in place, so much so we got stuck and had to get towed out of the spot. We unloaded the car and decided for this show we wouldn't use the trailer. We also had the 41 Willys at the Vedalo HD booth so it was double duty.

I worked the show all week and on the weekend the Tunderbirds performed. We also had the Embry-Riddle alumni event on Saturday. We had a wonderful event and I appreciate all of you that took time to stop by and say Hi at the booth.

My sister Nancy and her husband Duane flew in Saturday in order to help out with our busy schedule. It was a welcome relief as they took Andrew on Sunday to go have some fun. Chris and I loaded up the cars and hit the road for home. It was a long day, but as always a lot of fun.

Now you would think that I would be ready for a rest, but no way. Tuesday morning we went over to the Embry-Riddle Daytona Campus for the Women in Aviation day. Over 400 young girls come out to learn about the different careers that are available for them at Embry-Riddle. It is always refreshing to see kids with their whole life ahead of them. Full of dreams and ready to hit the ground running.

Well that about covers the last couple of weeks. This weekend we are heading to Gainesville, FL to tape the Pinks All Out show. Gainesville just put in a beautiful new tower, so I will try and behave. We will be there with Danny and Donna O'Day with their Super Wench Wheel stander. I can't wait to see them again. Well keep checking in.

See ya in the fast lane.
