My son spent the weekend at Watkins Glen with his Boy Scout troop enjoying some racing.
It rained on and off all weekend, so the track was slippery, and they saw a number of wrecks.
The let the kids go down into the pit area between races and see the cars up close, which was a big hit.
Are you a racing fan?
That is so cool that they let the kids get a close-up look too!
Seeing a race and cars live up close must have been so cool for those kids
That looks like a blast!
We don’t watch racing (on TV) but I bet watching it in person is so much better!
That looks like fun!
WOW! That is something he will remember his whole life. I can see him telling his kids about it one day.
I’ve never been to a real car race. Looks fun
what an awesome experience!!
How cool that they let them check out the cars! &Yikes about the wrecks.
I’ve never been to an auto race, but these pictures make it seem pretty exciting!
My brother and nephews think car racing is dynamite. I’ve been to one minor race that my brother was driving in, and it was fun, but too loud for me to go on a regular basis!
That looks like fun!
I bet he had a blast!
I am going to have to show these pictures to my son – he is obsessed with racing now that he has discovered Cars and Cars 2.
Looks like a lot of fun!
What a wonderful experience!
how exciting! I enjoy going to see races but can’t stand watching them on TV!
