My 11-year old grandson, Tommy made his first trip today to a "big" track, attending the History 300 Nationwide race at CMS. He has asked many times when we were going to a "big" track and his mom surprised him with the news last night that he was being rewarded for his Honor Roll performance all year in the 5th grade.
I am anxiously awaiting his report. His driver, Denny Hamlin finished 2nd to Bad Brad. I had one cell phone call from the track from his mom asking what had happened to Denny when he changed carburetors and went a lap down when the car didn't refire (' cause they had no gas in the new carburetor) .
I think any 1st trip to a big race is special. I hope he found it so today.
