Time Flies When Your Drag Racing

Today was the big race day at the ol' South Georgia Motorsports Park drag strip. Our day was running great but unfortunetly we didn't take the overall win. Though there was a silver lining because Rickey Gadson set the record for the lowest elapsed time. I mentioned this in the earlier blog but at the end of the day, there wasn't anyone that could legally beat it (there was a faster time but they were disqualified). So that made the day a little better even though we went out in the finals. 

I did get to experience Cracker Barrel while I was in the south. Reid and I ate dinner in the store-slash-restaurant before heading back to the hotel. Now onto the tips of travel.

TIP #2

There is one thing that I feel is necessary on this trip that I didn't bring. Talladega Nights, The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. A classic movie, especially when attending all types of racing. That movie has everything from how to act while in front of the camera, how to antagonize your opponents, and of course, how to get into autograph mode.

It's truly a classic and if you haven't seen it, I'll let you borrow mine.

So yes...always bring your copy of the Ricky Bobby story (Not to be confused with the Justin Bobby story, which is my life! haha shout out to Kristen)

It is now 12:45 my time in good ol' Valdosta, GA so I'll be heading to bed. We get up early to drive four hours southeast to Melbourne, FL for an off-road race. EXCITING. You know you wish you could come...haha. Keep posting comments and I'll keep trying to find interesting tidbits along my travels! Love you guys!
