Start your engines...

For Christmas Mike's parents and myself bought Mike a Nascar driving package. He had drove the race cars about 5 years ago and loved it so we decided to do it for him again. He was excited but I think Nolan was even more excited! Nolan is really into Cars the movie right now and loves race cars! We took B along with us and Johnny, Pam and Konner also met us there to watch our Nascar driver! Mike first did a ride-along with a trained professional and went 160+. He said this part was better than driving the car! Then he drove the car himself and his top speed was 139 mph.

After the racers were done on the track, the staff offered to take the boys around the track in a van! Nolan and Konner jumped at the offer. B was a little hesitant! Being the mean Aunt and Uncle we are, we made him get in. He sat stiff as a board the whole time and said "I want to go home! I don't like this!" Poor B... Nolan sat up front by himself and had this goofy grin the whole time! It was so much fun to watch this activity through their eyes!
Our pro racer... he thinks!

Dreaming of racing fast cars...
Mike racing the #88 car...
Our future race car drivers... And to think I could get them all looking and smiling... yeah right!

Nolan loved the ride on the track... When we would go on the banks we would just yell out "whooo" with a huge smile!
