We set out very early on October 19th to travel from Austin to Fort Worth, where Texas Motor Speedway is located. By the time we arrived, it was a beautiful breezy, sunny day.
I could barely contain my excitement as we headed through the tunnel onto the track!
The stands were not filled with fans screaming my name, but in my mind there were thousands of them, cheering me on.
A wonderful man named Pat was my pit crew manager and he helped me suit up in my very fashionable race outfit.
My racing suit pants were just a tad too large for me.
So was my jacket.
I'm rocking that sexy NASCAR look, aren't I?
Next came my little do-rag that goes under the helmet.
How's this for style?
Then I got fitted for my helmet, which squeezed in my cheeks like a chipmunk's.
Okay, so the outfit isn't so great, but I'd wear anything to ride in a race car!
Once I was suited up and ready, Pat posed with me for my official "ready to go" shot.
The number 88 (Dale Jr's car) was waiting for me on pit road, with Brian Keselowski in the driver's seat.
Climbing into the car was tricky and I stopped to wave at my husband, just in case it was the last time I got to say goodbye.
But I wasn't scared. I was beyond excited. Heck, I have to die someday and it may as well be doing something amazing!
And off we went!
We're making another left turn!
Topping speeds of over 165mph, Brian Keselowski drove masterfully around Texas Motor Speedway, with me hanging on for dear life.
I had a huge perma-grin pasted onto my face as we raced around the track three times.
You know, photos just don't do this experience justice!
Here is the VIDEO of my stock car ride:
My sweet (and slightly jealous) husband purchased the video for me as my birthday gift.
Big thumbs up for my XperienceDays.com Stock Car Ride Experience!
I did it! I really, really did it! And I loved it!
Where's my checkered flag? And I think Brian Keselowski forgot to do a burnout!
Huge thanks to everyone who made this experience possible for me!
And look, Brian Keselowski even tweeted me back!
