White Trash Delux

Ladies, this is more for your husbands so be warned. My son gave Cat Daddy a drive around at Tx Intl. Speedway for Christmas this year and scheduled it for July(what was he thinking!). For those of you who do not know what this is, I'll explain. It's where a man 50+, weighing 100 and plenty squeezes into a race car designed for someone 30, weighing much less, and gets drove around a race track doing 140 mph in 100 degree temp. Whew! The guys had a great time and my son actually drove one of the cars, while my daughter-in-law, my granddaughter, and I sweated and cheered them on. I have to say, it was really a hoot and I think you might have to be from the south to truly appreciate it. On a side note, to illustrate what Nascar nuts are in my family, my princess baby learned her numbers by watching the races. Needless to say, she learned 8, 24, and 17 first, and this was before she was two. How white trash are we.

Deb: in your next life you should be a commedian!! Wait a minute, forget the next life, just quit your day job and do it now!! Too funny. I'm sure Cat Daddy had a blast flying around the track. Was he dizzy when he got out of the car?
