Andy's favorite time of year had just passed - NHRA Drag Racing at the Firebird Raceway. Last year was the first time I had gone out to the track and experienced the thrill of 2-300 MPH! I was instantly hooked! When they pass you and it rattles your entire body - it's such a RUSH! Not to mention the nitro and burning rubber - sounds crazy coming from a girl but man its fun! I also love the fact that there are girls racing side by side with the guys! Ashley Force-Hood is Andy's "other" girlfriend and man she's awesome!
Anywho, we spent the whole day out at the track and got to meet up with my friend Robin and her fiancé Jim, who owns Hughes Performance and races in the sportsman’s series. Last year this time Robin had actually passed her test to get her racing license! Robin also managed to sneak us up to the starting line last year. I thought Andy was going to pass out with excitement, not to mention, Ashley Force walked by him and brushed his shoulder.
This weekend was also our one year anniversary for saying those three little (or not so little) words. I made him say it atleast three times before saying it back because I didn't know if he really meant it or if the nitro had made him fall in love with me! :) I think it was probably a little bit of both!
Here's our pictures from the races:
