Making Things Happen!
Wow what a busy week I've had! Started off on Monday with about 10 games
of paintball with winners of the Gillette More Than Shaving
Sweepstakes. That was so much fun! I invited some friends to join us, my
brother Kurt, Scott Speed, Brian Scott and Scott Rhea joined in on the
madness.
We played a mix of different games, and courses, and I tell you what that is some serious work. I am still sore and bruised. I got some great shots in on the guys, and oh course they got in a few good ones as well. The contest winner Aaron was a great teammate, I think we took down the others in 80 percent of the games.
After about 5 games we had a great lunch, I refueled with a NOS and it was back at it for a few more games. We scored another couple of victories, and left my marks on Scott Speed, and it was time to pack up and head to the airport for a trip to Orlando for a Interstate Batteries' appearance. These long days really make having a great partner in the guys at NOS an important asset. You have to stay so focused and NOS really helped me do that.
On Tuesday it was off to Michigan for an appearance at Craig's Cruisers where I took on race fans, sponsors and media members in a series of eight-lap go-kart sprints to help promote the upcoming Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips NASCAR Sprint Cup event at Michigan International Speedway on June 13, it's great to be able to help them sell some race tickets for the June race. I took them down in four of the five races, I got spun out in the other one.. We had about 500 people come out so thanks to everyone it was great seeing all of you!
Wednesday, I spent all day with Samantha doing wedding stuff, got all the wedding tasting done so another thing off the list. They had to roll me out after we finished, some good stuff.
It is Friday, and I am in Dover, time to get back to racing, running all three races this weekend. The weekend started off with Truck practice yesterday and we were really fast. Fast enough to win the pole for today’s race. As a result, I have to get rolling. Hope to see everyone at the track and looking forward to Charlotte where I will be back in NOS Toyota for the Nationwide race.
