Gentlemen, Start Your Engines!

Ever since we found out we were moving to Kentucky, one of our goals was to be able to go to a NASCAR race. Kyle was so excited about it, and honestly, I knew that it would be a lot of fun for the whole family, so we bought the cheapest tickets we could get in the best place we could get them months ago and have just been waiting for the day on the calendar to come!
The kids got to sit in a real race car!


Before the race, we went to find our seats and check out the stadium.
We also were able to take a picture with a Sprint Cup.






























Nascar on Speed! We were on tv at least once in the crowd.
We'll never know for sure, but the camera aimed on us for a couple seconds!

Pre-race with the cars all lined up and waiting for their drivers!

The cars all driving towards the track to get in line for the race!




























Pre-race lap following the pace car. Just so you know, when they start their engines, it gets VERY loud!
Thank goodness for headphones to help with the noise!

Pit Stops! We were right by the pits, so we had a perfect view
of the pit stops, although some were too far away to get very
good pictures.

Our Nascar babies!

The winner!
Next year I probably won't go with a baby, but Kyle will take the kids. Anyone want to join them?
