NASCAR - Las Vegas Motor Speedway

Ready &Waiting!!!

February 2010  – Las Vegas Motor Speedway – Nascar Infield 

5 days @ the infield on Las Vegas Motor Speedway – Can it get any better!!!! 

Thursday February 25, 2010 – Bry arrives today and sets up ready for Sue, Ryan & Bree to arrive tomorrow (some of us have work & school L)

Friday February 26, 2010 – Practice Day today & Bry gets the layout of the land, as he worked here for 6 years he really already knows his way around pretty well.  We also camped in the infield in 2006 In our trailer.  Ok the rest of the gang all arrive, about 4:30 after school & work, with Olive Garden, yummy!!!  We take a look around – everyone is in a good mood and looks like it will be a fun weekend, even if a little cool.

On top of the world, well not quite

Saturday February 27, 2010 - Up pretty early.  Bree makes breakfast, Woo!! Hoo!! – Thanks Bree J.  Go for a look around before the racing starts.  The trailers are all open selling different racing gear for each of the drivers.  Of course, we look at Dale Earnhardt Sr.  as Bry supported him  for years and continues to collect his stuff even after his death, which we were so saddened by. At least he died doing something he loved and his legacy continues.  We watch part of the race from the roof of the motorhome with Bree’s Dad, Terry, and a friend, Tom.  We have weekend passes to the Neon Garage, which lets us go into the garage area and watch the teams working on the cars.  Today we also get to go right into pit lane and watch by Kevin Harvick’s pit stop as his team cheer him on to a win!!!!  J  It is sooooo cold, who would believe it is Las Vegas.  Finally back to the motorhome for a BBQ and to get warm. 

Tired but happy at the end of the day

Sunday February 28, 2010 – Race Day has arrived – We decide to watch the race from the Neon Garage area and go early to make sure we get a seat with a table.  Get good views of turn 1 & 2 and can see 3 & 4 on the big screen by us.   Terry & Tom join us again and we have fun watching the race.  Back for another BBQ, everyone is really tired and we just sit around waiting for the crowds to leave before we head on home to get back to work/school tomorrow.  Bry stays until tomorrow when he will pack up and leave.
