Nah, we have a light breakfast at the hotel then head to the track.
A few more: Rolling up into the tunnel where 'Cowboy' checks their safety gear and we wait for the 'start your engines' command ![]() This is 'Cowboy', the kids love him! ![]() Then it's out to starting line to go through the water box and then the burnout routine ![]() Hurry up - and wait, time to relax after your run (there are 700 Jr Dragsters there, so it takes about 4 hours to cycle through!) We park the golf cart up in the grandstands in an entrance way and watch ![]() Each car usually has their home track entourage out at the starting line for their run, makes the kids feel great - especially for Round 1. The week builds for Round 1 of The Big Race, and there are so many people between the tunnel and the starting line that sometimes us Dads need to clear a path for the kids to drive out to the starting line! What a wonderful event, great memories - win or lose. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
