Not much to post

South Texas Speedway

          Boy was this last weekend a fail...

          My family decided to head down to corpus to South Texas Speedway for the last race of the season. For the class my dad, and my brother n law were in, it was 2,000 to win but first you had to make it through the qualifying races... they had me soooo nervous! BUT after all the wrecks and stupid drivers they had to deal with, they qualified. They went onto the big race and all hell broke loose... On the first lap, my dad was trying to avoid a wreck in front of him and ended up rolling the tire off the rim. So, as expected, he had to sit in the infield. Then I notice that other cars who had tire problems were going off the track to get them fixed... why didn't my dad? Well since the rest of the family was watching my brother in law in the race, they weren't gonna help my dad. Yes, I know, kinda messed up huh? Anyways, Travis (bro in law) got a flat from a 16 yr old driver who got squirrely and hit the front of his car. His tire popped off the rim and she went head on into the wall... well he went off the track and got help with the tire. 

          Okay cool, one person in our crew would still be in the race... IF HE COULD GET BACK ON THE TRACK!! The people from the girls crew came over to where we were, stood in front of the race car and said that he was done, was not gonna go back on the track, that he was the reason she wrecked and that we needed to pack our shit up and leave. No, he did not cause the wreck, she needs to learn how to drive, and deal with wrecks if she wants to play with the big boys.. but that's just me. Well, my family didn't want to fight or have any trouble so they packed up their stuff, loaded up the cars and left the track.

          I'm sorry but if they were standing in front of me, who just happened to be in a car, I'd start driving.. if they got ran over, it would be their own damn fault for standing there. Needless to say, we didn't win the race but it was a good time. We saw some cars flip, some caught fire and some just couldn't drive. It was an overall good weekend I guess. The link to watch the big wreck is below. 

Have a wonderful day! Drive safe!
