Welcome Race Fans! Talladega 2008

Start your engines and get ready for the fastest, drunkest, most red-neck time you've ever had. I have to admit that Talladega was more than I expected. I liken it to anyone in California who has ever been to the Del Mar Fair on Rodeo night. You have never seen a crazier bunch of country folk around! The most notable moments were; The mullets, drunk toothless guys with no shirts, women getting beer poured on them, 70 year old women giving the finger to Dale Jr. fans, cans cans and more cans of Budweiser, and the $40 nascar shirts that you can buy at Walmart for $8. Other than that Chase and I had a great time. We went with Steve and Trent and got to the race about 45 minutes after it started. We walked around for a little while looking at all the exhibits and then a guy approached us and gave us a free ticket to get in. Chase and I went straight down to the track (See Video) and watched the cars for a while. He had a blast watching all the cars race by. His favorite car was the Office Depot car and it just so happened to be running in 25+ place. It's great watching the video and seeing all the cars go by and then Chase points out "His Racer"
