My challenge really got "revved" up today as I participated in the Nascar Racing experience at the Charlotte Motor Speedway. I was able to ride alongside a professional driver or at least that is what I called him since we were literally inches I think from the wall at 185 miles an hour on the track. I tried to get a video but it is hard to work a phone at that speed. So what did I take from this experience....... Racing IS A SPORT!!! No doubt. What an exhilarating experience going that fast and we were not even in a race. How do those drivers do it and come away unharmed. Unbelievable. Besides the gas fumes in my face for all of 3 minutes, the ride was incredible and I think I am finally a race fan now after growing up in a racing town.
