My wife and I spent all day at the track watching practice and waiting patiently to go out on it. The cars and the track were awesome, the downside was we weren’t on it long enough. We’ll have to work on that for next year Josh:burnout:. For those who aren’t there you will want to be there next year.
Well here is me being retarded…
I left after we all ate dinner last night and was basically falling asleep while driving so my wife and I switched and I told her to get onto 86 going east. Well, we live in Olean, which is west. I woke up around 1am and saw a sign that said “Broome County” and started swearing. Then we turned around and finally got home at about 4:15. Now I’ve only been at work since 8am and I feel like I’m going to fall asleep.
I’ll see everyone for the race on sunday
