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!
