A Day at the Races

Nope, not those races. I went to the Bridgeport Speedway on Saturday night and watched racers go zoom-zoom-zoom around a 5/8ths mile dirt oval. The coolest thing was when during one of the feature races a guy got spun around going 140 mph (no kidding, he was going that fast), slammed on the gas, and pulled a 360. Got back in the action. And cam in third. Fun stuff. Great track, great crowd, great racing. Hey, it's cool too. Low price ($15 entry) and no drinking makes for a good race crowd. I've been to a few others in Illinois, South Carolina, and North Carolina where the same couldn't be said.
