"What the f^%"?
(click on all pictures to enlarge)
After 800 miles of travel, gas $$, hotel $$, & pit pass $$, for the Maddog Motorsports crew, our feature was rained out after running 1 (that's one) lap! I will say tho' that Elko Speedway is real nice. Under the main grandstand (that is enclosed and air conditioned) they have a stage, dance floor, pool tables, and 2 (that's two) fully stocked bars! For the feature the cars did take the green, but before the first lap could be completed the yellow was displayed because of a spin at the back of the pack. While under the yellow it started lightly raining. The officials kept the field on the track under the yellow hoping the rain would stop. WRONG!! First the rain turned into a deluge, then tornado sirens started going off!! Loaded up the car and headed back to the hotel, where we were told to stay in the hallway until the tornado warnings were cancelled. After the all clear was given, grabbed cooler and headed to the pool. (hold on, our night gets more exciting). Complete with masks and guns, 3 mexicans tried robbing the Taco Bell next to hotel. The receptionist said they were headed thru the parking lot towards our trailer. They weren't tho' and later were caught by the cops.
I'll say one thing about this racing stuff, we may not be running good right now, but we're living exciting life's when we go to the track. So far it's been one thing after another!!!...lol
