it was a long day to say the least.  i worked the night before from 5p. to 4 a.  had to be at a meeting at church at 7 a.  finished at 9 a.  slept from 9:30 to 1:30.   had some one sending me multiple text messages keeping me awake most of the time.  told him what he wanted to hear so he would leave me alone.  which was he could drive my hornet in the eight.  woke up, got me and kids to the shop to meet up with doug carver, ken hood, and barry white.  we arrived at the fairgrounds just before the drivers meeting started.  went out to practice.  i was out on the autocross course with the full size cars.  the ones in front of me kept ending up sideways in the corners.  a olds delta painted like lightning mcqueen rammed me from behind when i had to stop and she didn't.  ran the first of two autocross features.  i got dumped right of the bat.  so i was trafic after that.  but doug did win that race.  had about as much sucess the second race.  then the mechanics race was right after that.  long time crew member ken hood won that race driving my s10 beating two full size cars with v8s and another s10.  good job ken.  we then had to wait through several derby heats, truck derby with three trucks, and a lawnmower derby.  which i will withold how rediculous a lawnmower derby is. then we got to run the eight.  doug carver won the eight, a young woman named kayla adams was second, and barry white finished third.  the guy who wanted to drive my truck so bad well we won't talk about where he finshed.  i took my kids home met barry back at the shop to let him in and help unload the green s10.  i arrived home at 2:30.  that was a long day.
