Talladega Nascar Race!!!

Me, Kenny, Kenny's boss and his wife all went to the Talladega Nascar race back in October. We all had a blast and it was an experience that we will never forget!! So many people, such loud cars, wreck after wreck, and a million and one rednecks. Talladega, Alabama is a very small city except for twice a year when the nascar race is there and then it is one of the most populated cities in the country.
Kenny and his new friend....Crown Royal. Kenny's boss bought us pit passes and VIP passes to go see the pits and party with the die hards. It was so much fun!!

We had scanners to listen to during the race to hear the conversations between the drivers and their pit crews. It was definitely interesting to hear what goes on behind the scenes!

This is the angle of the track at the flat strait away part of the track. Can you imagine what the corners look like if this is the flattest part of the track?!?!

Cars and crews in the pits getting ready for the big race.

Cody was so excited that mom & dad got to see 'Doc' from the movie Carz. They had the original Hudson Hornet at the raceway. He ran a lap around the track before the race, running 141 mph. He was way cool!!

Kenny used to be a die hard Napa fan, but decided to also root for the Crown Royal car. Here he is posing next to the toolbox down at the pits.

Of course here is the old Napa car that we got to see upclose and personal. The Napa reprsentative showed us all of the cool modifications that they do the racecars and why.
