Exhilarating

Exhilarating! These were Melissa's word after travelling 170 mph around Lowes Motor Speedway in a Nascar Racecar. I must agree that this is something that there is nothing to compare to. Feeling like you're travelling sideways as you come up off the turn about a foot off the concrete wall going 170 mph is unreal. Basically it would be like travelling to the end of your neighborhood at 170 mph and hooking a uturn and going back the other way without breaking stride. This was hands down the most adrenaline I have ever experienced. This made bungee jumping feel like the mine train compared to the Superman coster at Six Flags. Melissa's eyes began watering just from the adrenaline rush. I was proud to say Bryan did not mess his pants. We ended up with 7 of us going up there. We purchased the DVD and it should be here in the next 4-6 weeks. I will post our DVD from our in car when it arrives.

After the Richard Petty Experience, we headed over to Hendrick MotorSports and met up with Pam with the Hendrick Marrow Program. She gave Isaac a tour of the shop now that Junior is there. We got to look at his Bud Shootout car. She took us on a full backstage tour which was even more awesome than last years. We got to meet Mr. Hendrick's bird George. George has his own office and everything. It was awesome.

The next couple of posts will feature some pics from the day.
