Vegas...Glitter, Lights, Gambling, Drinking, and the most Important Thing! NHRA Drag Racing!
We arrive at Las Vegas Motor Speedway just in time for the last session on Friday! While Gary goes off to the stands, I consume myself with all the familiar faces, smells, and touching base with my
"road friends"! What a feeling! Really making me want to come back to this circus even more......
Dale Creasy Sr. sits with us..and if any of you know Dale, he has a lot to say! After about 30 minutes or so, we were laughing so hard that my face hurt! That man can make a bad day have humor!
After this session, we head to the hospitality area to enjoy the gracious company of the Lucas Oil Group, visiting with the other guests and making new contacts. Then off to P.F. Chang's for a cocktail and a few appetizers....MY favorite chain restaurant. Lettuce wraps and seared tuna...Yum!
Thinking Saturday was going to be a normal race day...NOT! It was a very long day due to all the oil downs! Wow, the first run with the nitro cars ONLY lasted for 3 hrs. and 15 minutes...the crowd was getting restless and impatient..can't blame them, so were we! But we made the best of it making conservation with our bleacher friends.
Saturday ended up to be GREAT! Thank you fuel cars!
Scheduling a few meetings on Sunday for my friends, talking of the 2011 NHRA season with sponsors...everyone left happy! Going to be a great NHRA 2011 season for sure...You all will see soon!
You know Vegas just isn't about the casinos, lights, Halloween weekend...it's about the new friends and lasting contacts! Get it!
Love it! Betty "Boop"
