After we got parked, we went over to the garages and watched race practice and got to see a lot of the drivers....this is Denny Hamlin, .......he drives the FEDEX car in the Cup series....this is the Nationwide series race... a sort of minor league to the big boys...but a lot of the Cup drivers like to drive in the lower league too, for practice.

Saturday was the actual race, and it had turned windy and VERY cold. The sun came out and it felt okay, but once it went behind the stadium seats we froze! So, about halfway through the race, we went back to the bus and watched it on TV...in the warmth.
