trains and race cars.....

Warning... Lots and lots of pics.... Let's begin..




So for my dad's B-day this year ( which was in Aug) all of us a kids and my mother went in on the "mustang experience" and Miller moter sports. Basically you get to drive a race car... He was WAY stoked. Robby and I were able to go and watch.. what a thrill!





Ready to go!!


We were able to stand on a platform and watch the cars go right under us... You really can't explain how cool it is to hear 10 race cars go right underneath you... Such an adrenalin rush!



There's Dad... # 25~



I thought that was cool the "thanks Larry" it was on every Race Car.


After you drove 10 laps by yourself, you were able to go on 2 "hot laps" where you were the passenager and a professionl race car driver took you for a ride... my mom was offered a turn but she gave it to Rob instead. She said he would "appreciate it more"... When he was done he said that I would have crapped and it's a good thing they didn't let me go. ( I wanted to but they said they were out of gas)... anyways he says you go up on a turn and he said I thought for sure the driver would shift down, but no, he shifed up and just slid around the corner.. He said it was nuts but so much fun!




Robby getting strapped in.







The driver... he said he just flew in from Ohio. He just got done doing a race.



After we went into the museum that had all of Larry H. Miller's Cars.. It was pretty sweet.


















Then after that fun, we went to lunch while we waited for something pretty special.




Robby got 4 tickets to go ride the Union Pacific Train for (specail people) or something like that.. He turned in an unsafe motorist ( basically he called in their plates when he was driving the train because the doof ran through the crossing guards) and was caught, so they thanked him with a train ride lol!... It was actually really cool!






Robby got 2 hats, and we all got some U.P. water bottles, pens. all the works. basically to just say thank you. It was kind of cool






Robby and the rest of the Engineers that work for the railroad. some chick wanted to take their pics.








Anyways that was our Friday... kind of a busy day but sooo much fun!
