Went and visited my best friend late saturday and had a great time. We lived together in a house he owned through several years of college and we always had a great time!! :>)) Went down and helped him finish his demo car and then worked in the pits all day yesterday for the derby. It was a blast. He married a friend of mine. Girl I took to the prom in high school. :>)) Was great seeing him and his family again. Toke home three tropies. Best looking car, winner for his heat, and 2nd place in the feature. All around great day.

Only bad thing is I'm sunburned like crazy and I have to be careful about that as I am at a higher risk of skin cancer because of my burns.

Sounds like you had an excellent time TE, its good to catch up with friends and family .. mix up some bicarb and water and put them on the burns, that will take the sting right out.

Sounds like you had a great time.

Back in the early 90's, I worked for a company that was a Nascar sponsor

I pulled a 40'...3 axle trailer with the companies show car. It was the exact

same thing as the cars on the track. I took it all over Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahome.

I would park the trailer at the far end of Walmart's parking lot and drive the race car
to the front of the store to show, and for people to take pictures. That was one
loud car. It got peoples attention and they were drawn to it like flys on honey. I wore the pit crews pants, shirt (with all the sponors decals) and cap.

The trailer was a billboard on sex wheels. I even had people want to take pictures with me and some even asked me for my autograph.

I did that for two year..The company was Thorn Apple Valley. The #98 car and the driver was Greg Sacks.

Man...At that moment in time I felt like a celebrity...

In a couple of occasions I had guys ask me if their girlfriend could sit on
my lap a take a picture with me and the race car. :p

Sorry, TE...I did not mean to take the thunder away from your thread. It
just brought back some good memories. :) Hope you have the opportunity
to hang out with your bud again during another one of his races.

Looks like your bud cleaned up pretty good! :okthumb:
