I used to race stuff. Now I help make stuff go to space and sometimes make shirts that are vaguely motorsports related.

That’s good to know. I guess the timeline will depend on whether the parents catch it or not.

They won’t? I had read that they’re contagious for 7 days from first symptoms. First symptoms were yesterday.

Total selfishness IMO. If that one family bows out, the rest of us go camping as normal. Now, the group is split into two, and half of us are scrambling to make other plans.

Theyve got me feeling like an insane person

Am I insane in NOT wanting to expose my two young kids to a painful illness?

I use the shit out of my Ryobi stuff and the only thing I ever broke was the angle grinder. And to be fair, I hucked it against the concrete because the small batteries were inadequate for cutting out an entire quarter panel.

I have since invested in the medium and large batteries and been fine.

Stages are a mixed bag. Some races are worse because of them but some kind of need that reset. I could go either way.

GWCs are good in theory and I used to not have an issue with them, but the past few years have made them so random. Maybe if the playoff format changes, GWCs will be “normal” again

They made my autocorrect worse somehow. Oh well.

They just did it again!

My son is just stoked to be here. Every time a car drives by, he yells “racecar!” And smiles the biggest smile.

A guy like me doesn’t deserve this. I don’t know how I got here but I’m enjoying the fuck out of every second.

I’ve got a Budweiser in one hand and a Happy Dad seltzer in the other. I’ve got New York steaks ready to get on the grill for dinner and some Jim Beam Apple to go along with it.

Our kids got to meet Katherine Legge today (my daughter’s fave) and see all the cars in the garage.
