I Wonder if Those NASCAR Boys Know?

... Just how much work... So many Other people do... Keepin' them goin' real fast, and Turning Left? :o)

Hope some of  'em appreciate it!

To be Honest 'bout it, I'm purty low on the Totem Pole of laborers here... but I gotta tell you... after three days of the better part of 12 hours each, I'm a wore down Pup! :o) ... and something like 12 hours of the "Big Race Day" to do...

So tonight I'm likely to be more tiredur then ever... Yeah, that's 'nuther one of them RedNeck words... it means; "My Kiester's dragging like an old three legged dogs!"

Friday I worked a gate down by turn 4, which put me in a spot that I could on occasion, take a quick break and actually go see some of the Racing...

*Making Turn 3 at Phoenix International Raceway*
I know I've told you how bad that Raider I ride is? ... yeah... well... uh... Even it ain't keepin' up with these boys... 165 miles an hour or so runnin' down the straights... 3 inches from a concrete wall...

... these boys are more Nuts than I am... and THAT, is sayin' somethin' boys N' girls! :o)

*NASCAR Boys making Turn 4 at Phoenix International Raceway*

Having never actually been to a Race before... after all these years of cheapin' out and watchin' on TV... standing by the fence, over on the straight as they run by... to quote today's Kids... OMG!

You see 'em comin'... so it ain't any surprise... but they get to you... and SCREAM past.... So fast you can't focus on the car...

... Your breath catches a second, like you just had somebody run up and goose you unexpected? and you can feel your heart skip a stroke or two... it's a Weird sensation... makes me giggle! :o)

I tried to capture a few of the Individual cars goin' by... and as quick as my lil' Nikon is... you have to time your shot good... or you get a picture of ... pavement! :o)

*Anybody know who #68 is? :)*

Like this guy... I managed to time it just right... I suppose somebody knows who he is... Guess I'm a Bad NASCAR FAN... NO BEER! :) 'cause I haven't got a clue.

But... the Sun sets on NASCAR too... and I gotta go get ready to finish up my week...

*Sunset Over Phoenix International Raceway*
Yesterday and today, I'm back from my two day 'Supervisor' job to runnin' a Tram... Yup... still... a Jack-of-all-trades.

So have fun watchin' the race on television today... and if you see the Trams Hauling fans up and down the south side of the setup here... One of those is bein' driven by Me! and... Heidi is gonna be my Hostess on the tram today! :)


Runnin' the Wheels off a truck... Driving at NASCAR! ...
Ok... driving a TRAM, at NASCAR :)

Have you ever thought sometime that they might run over you? Not being able to turn in time?

Brian said...

I tried to NOT think of such things... but... I kept ten bucks handy... so I could run on over to Walmart for some fresh BVD's... just in case! :o)
