Car Racing

Chris and I got to be passengers in race cars while they raced in the Valley River parking lot. Doesn't sound to exciting but it's a lot different in the car. The entire race course only takes about 40sec to finish. I will tell you from my one ride- wow. I was belted in with a 5 point harness as tight as I could get it, wore a racing helmet (thank goodness). Some of the turns and corners are really tight, and even though I tried really hard to hold my head back against the seat it still knocked up against the side of the car a few times. And it barely looks like you can fit through the cones on the race course. I'm glad I decided to try it. Chris went like 6 times and I went on the final turn.

It was down in Springfield, and honestly we thought it was gonna be like Go Karts or something. It was way different. We had lots of fun. Caleb wanted to ride but you have to be 14 years old, I think.
