  1. I tried to embed some video I took but Tapa won’t let me. It was a really great experience. I’d do it again. Exiting the parking lot was a beating though. Fort Worth’s finest had the south 35 access roads closed. Which meant I had to drive north and loop back around in to 35 south. But all in all it was an enjoyable experience. Thinking about renting a camper next year and posting up in the infield…..
  2. I enjoyed the experience. The 100 year old vet that sang the National Anthem was awesome. You could hear the pride in that man’s voice. I went in knowing nothing of the sport and left disappointed. Disappointed because as the race wore on I noticed the 45 car was kind of lingering around. He was in a good spot. I thought he was gonna make a push for a top 2 or 3 finish if not winning the damn thing outright. And then with less than 30 laps to go he got spun out by some limp dick who apparently took driving lessons at the Anne Frank School for the Blind. The fact that he was sitting fourth, got clipped, and finished 23rd was insane to me. All because some driver couldn’t handle his shit. I was absolutely gobsmacked by the number of cars that came into the pit that looked like they were done (broken axle, body damaged beyond repair, etc) but the crew would get it all back together and the car would leave the pit looking like nothing happened. The facilities at the track itself reminded me of a high school football game. A lot of basic food choices. No real fan interactivity. Feels like some modernization is due.
  3. Here’s the next question I have…..how strict are they on the 14x14x14 cooler rule? I’ve found a few that are close but may exceed the height limit by a few inches. I don’t want to lug a cooler around so I am specifically looking at backpack coolers. Here’s the one I am looking at purchasing. https://www.academy.com/p/igloo-marine-30-can-backpack Any recommendations are appreciate.
  4. Nvm Anybody have WT101 8year?
  5. The last 2 posts have me amped up about going. Apparently the tickets we got are pit passes. Don’t know what that means. I know where the pit is so I assume that gives us access. Really looking forward to it. Here’s my question though….Can you park at Bass Pro and catch a ride with some buddies coming up from ATX to the track? I’m just trying to find a place to meet up with these guys and carpool in. Preferably somewhere I won’t get towed.
  6. These dimes woulda been much cooler.
  7. Never posted in this thread until now. Never been to a race at TMS or NASCAR event ever. That changes this weekend. Have some buddies coming up from ATX on Sunday and we are going to go. They are going to pick me up somewhere off of 35W and we will carpool in from there. I live a good ways off of 35 so we are looking at ideal parking where we can meet up and head to the track. Ojos Locos was floated as a possible spot. I’m not too sure about that. Does anyone have experience with a situation like this and know of an establishment where paid parking is available for the race?

    Crazy much?

  9. I appreciate that bub. But…This has been 25+ years in the making. I’m aware of the concerns but the heart wants what the heart wants. I’m happy with the purchase.
  10. Had been wanting to get an F250 for about the last 25+ years. But I was too young back then and had just started having kids. So economically it didn’t make sense to buy one. And I would always defer to the wife and the kids needs. Ford Escape. GMC Acadia. Honda Accord. Mercedes Benz C300 (not family friendly at all and which my wife impulse bought after getting into an accident that totaled out the Accord.) 2014 KR Ford Expedition. Cadillac XT5. And a Volvo XC90 (which is finominile!). Always put my needs aside and focused on the family first. Until…. 2017 6.7 diesel Lariat with 4” lift kit. 88k on the odometer. Not a scratch or ding. Interior is impeccable. Spray in bed liner and tonneau cover. $45k. I’m in love. This is what I’ve waited for.
  11. Pretty sure it sucks being a fan of anything Houston.
  12. Beat me to it….
  13. Roast me all you want….i wanted Beard back….
