Once again, it has been over a month since my last post and this time it's just due to summer and too much relaxing, golfing, fishing and vacations.
Since my last post, I made it to my first Indy Car race and of course it was at Pocono Raceway! Aside from drag cars (not talking about the male cars that dress as females), it was the first time I have seen cars do 230mph in front of me - talk about an adrenaline rush. Don't get me wrong, I'm a NASCAR fan first but I have come to realize I just love all types of racing. Indy Car has a new fan!
As the GoBowling.Com 400 weekend is finally upon us, I revised the map showing how much fun the Pocono area really is - golf, lake activities, water parks, breweries, casinos... ...and oh yeah, an insanely fast, unique track in the middle of it all! It will be a bittersweet weekend. On one hand it's such a rush to know we'll be watching ARCA, Camping World Truck Series and Sprint Cup all in one weekend - on the other hand, come Monday we have to wait 43 1/2 weeks until NASCAR returns to the Tricky Triangle.
I will be leaving for Pocono Friday morning for the 3rd time in 8 weeks, see you in 70 hours @poconoraceway !!! (good thing I spent the last 10 days on vacation with my wife or she might think I love Pocono Raceway more than her)
