Thanks for viewing!

So after the race we headed back to my house to get some sleep. We woke up around 6am to get ready and we arrived at the track around 8. We still needed to buy our tickets so we just bought general admission tickets so we could sit on the mounds and watch. Most people call this race boring but this year I thought it was really exciting. Although I wish there had been just one more lap for Gordon to lock in on Menard! Anyways on to some pics! Gordon's show car again. I just love that paint scheme! Ryan Newman show car. Clint Bowyer show car On to the garage are for a sneak peak! Jeff Burton's car on its way to tech Dale Jr's car being worked on.

So I was very hesitant to upload this PTR because I wasn't sure if people would take the time to read it because it's not park related. But I know a few of you are NASCAR fans so I decided to go for it. So my friend Nate and I did not plan on attending this race we did however plan on going to the Nationwide race the night before. I only have a couple of pictures from the Nationwide race on my cell phone because I forgot to bring my memory card. So please excuse the bad quality! So the Saturday of the Nationwide race we arrived at Lucas Oil Raceway around 2pm. We like to tailgate and we also like going through the discount tents to buy discount merchandise. To say the least I was already disappointed before the race even began. Why? Because this was supposed to be Travis Pastrana's debut race. He was trying to pull off a super weekend and do three events in the X games and come to Indy for the race. But in his first competition he ended up injuring himself pretty severely. So now I was rooting for Trevor Bayne. To be honest the first half of the race was pretty boring. No cations and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Led the first 150 laps. But after that it became quite interesting. This was probably one of my favorite races. With 15 to go Trevor blew his engine and was done for. =[ But in the last few laps Stenhouse was passed by Brad Kesolowski who ended up winning the race. Pictures. Again sorry for bad quality. By the way I'm a huge Jeff Gordon fan! Me with Jeff's show car. Qualifying Pace Laps Some pit road action Trevor Bayne leaving his pit stall. Close call! More to come in Part 2!

Bats fly over peoples heads all the time. The worst is when they get caught in your hair. =P

Maybe he thought Terp meant a rat? Not to be confused with a mole named StalkerChick.....

Terpy is quite the pun artist....

You share your marshmallows and I'll share my graham crackers. Who's got the chocolate? And don't say Hershey Park. ;]

Is it bring your own marshmallows? Or will they be supplied?

It's a figurative fire set ablaze in everyone's head by goodyellowkorn182. I just keep thinking "Keep the Fire Burnin".........

Let the fire run rampent!

Or we can make a Ghost of a Coaster in a World with our friends Hannah and Barbarra.

10 years? Or is that too young. Or is 2 enough?

Bat channel.... Similar to the history channel?

Ended in a derailment for the owners.

Old Indiana Fun Park anyone?

I heard it's still standing. Is that what you meant?

It's Cedar Fair...... They love their Nickels.

As much as I hate to say it I think Son of Beast has seen it's last days. Don't get me wrong I'd love to see it run again but lets be logical here. I'd love to see them auction off pieces of the ride to us enthusiasts though if it is torn down.

Might I suggest something. You rode those three wooden coasters first thing in the morning before they had any chance to warm up. Try riding The Beast first thing in the morning and seeing how it seems to crawl during some parts of the ride. Go back to those rides later in the day and the airtime will be there.

Complain complain complain. Seriously you guys made it this long with the coasters we have. Which I think is in the top ten of coaster variety. We have a really amazing park. You made it just fine this year with what we have. Be grateful Kings Island will even be around another year.

Just because they said that doesn't mean it's not part of the announcement.

New for 2012......... Fast Lane Passes all year round.

Idk how anyone can jump to conclusions yet. It's a very bleak picture. I'd say just wait it out. Patience my friends. And I don't really see them revamping SOB and calling it new for 2012. Sorry guys but that's just my opinion.

^^Cough Cough^^ Firehawk. ^^Cough Cough^^ Son of Beast...... Oh sorry I'll stop coughing now.

I took the brunt of 4 major hurricanes in 2004when I lived in Florida. So I know exactly what they are dealing with. Mind you we never evacuated for any of the storms. We were hit with Charley, Frances, Ivan, and Jeane. Irene doesn't seem to pack the punch that these 4 did. But I'm still hoping everyone stays safe.
