Default IRL race at Fontana

Hey bros, Bryant manufacture gave us tickets to the IRL race today, they sponsor the # 8 delphei car. We have gone for last 4 years and it is a pretty good time. They have a hospitality tent with food, drink and meet the driver Scott Sharp.

Well Sharp did well today and finished 4th not bad. There were 3 yellows for crashes and no one hurt, but a lot of manufacture dollars smashed and burnt.

Open wheel racing at 215 mph is pretty cool. I love to go to the races even neckcar lol. If it has wheels, it has to be raced.

Well here is some pictures of the car, winners circle, local mountains with first snow it rained here today and a picture of my wife and I in the stands.

Yes to the wife, she's the best. Yes there is always a good spread. We actually missed the hospitality tent this year.

Do to the rain here and the possibility of the race delayed we went to church and then afterward went to breakfast with the family. It rained the whole time during breakfast and I though tit might get cancelled.

After breakfast the weather looked better so we drove to the speedway that is only about 20 minutes away or closer, parked in the preferred parking provided by Bryant, walked in and sat down just as Tony Hawk “the grand marshal" called out start your engines.

I want to go to. It looks real good. Has a heavy price tag on the 2 day school but I will drop the 400.00 on the one day school for sure. Sounds like a good x-mas present for me
