We got up this morning and had a great breakfast. Being as how the race didn't start till 6:00 PM we went for a walk. This works in well with Sue's plan to walk my legs off. Last year we never went into the track area. So we headed up to the Tackside club and checked in. Got or wrist bands so we can go most everywhere. Track side club is nice good seating on the back stretch with complimentary beer and wine. Breakfast, lunch and dinner depending on the races. Trackside club is the big white tent in the center.
So then we walked around inside the track. Had our picture taken with a fake Clint Boyer at the Jack Daniels tent. He is one of our heros.
While were were inside the track we saw the Sears Craftsman display. Sue just could not resist her old home.
After a long walk we ended up in the pits. Lots of action going on as the cup cars were testings. In and out in and out.
Hitched a ride back up to the club in one of their golf cars. From there back to the RV and a visit with our neighbors Lyn and Kent a couple guys from Mesa. Left for the race about 4:30 and had dinner then watched the race. Ron Hornaday won. There was a beautiful sunset and great fire works. All in all a good day. Sue got 14000 steps on her pedometer.
