Oh man was it fun!

I still can't get over how tiny that track is!

I could have gotten crazy and tried more to keep up with the pace car, 85 mph, but with no experience on the track, I felt that I was going as fast as I could!

If you look at the pics from inside the car when we went around, you can see how far the thing hanging from the mirror swung. and we weren't even fully in the turn!

I can't wait until,next year!
