This weekend I went to Loudon (officially New Hampshire International Speedway) to see the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series SYLVANIA 300.
As I stood there 20 feet from 40 cars moving at speeds over 180mph my gaterade shook in my hand and I scrambled to get my ear plugs.
Wow what an amazing sight, smell, sound!
Okay maybe it isn't for everyone but me and 110,000 of my closest friends thought it was a great way to spend a nice fall day!
Being a new timer I didn't have a favorite car or driver. My 5 year old told me to pick a car based on my favorite color and my 7 year old said pick one closest to my age...only one problem there was no blue 30-something car!
I found a 38 with M&M's on it and thought that was close enough! It was in the leading 10 cars when I picked him out so I figured he was contending for the championship. Turns out he wasn't in the "chase". I guess if you aren't in the top 10 by this time in the season you are out of luck even if you have a great race. Rules
He crashed into the wall half way through the race - bummer but got back in and with the 5 car who had a really bad day (and no hood), pulled up the rear and at least stayed in the race to the end. Looks like I should have picked Reese's Peanut Butter cups #29 who won and is in the chase!
Not for the weary - I left at 6:20 am and got home at 10:30pm. The atmosphere was a mix of small and personal yet huge and happening. Parking was free, t-shirts only $5 but then tickets $60 and radio rentals $180 and up!

I live in Auburn, MA. I called home yesterday and was talking with my wife, Lisa. At one point in the conversation she took the cordless phone outside and I could hear a whole bunch of racket. It sounded like a med-flight helicopter was landing in my back yard. I asked what was going on and she told me that she wasn't sure but there were a lot of police sirens, and there were helicopters hovering overhead. That's plural. Multiple whirly-birds.
So while I was talking I did a quick check on news sites and found out that a bus traveling from New York to Boston had overturned on an exit from I-290. That's just a mile from my house. Apparently the driver of a Fung Wah bus had misjudged and ended up going off the highway. 35 people were injured and taken to area hospitals.
My first reaction was "there goes the drive home." Figuring the commute would be crazy, I headed home at the end of the day. To my surprise though, since my drive doesn't take me directly to the affected routes, I was OK.
When I got home, sure enough, at least one chopper could still be seen circling over my house. Round and round, back and forth. Quite the buzz in the neighborhood.
Despite the obvious nightmare this must have been for those involved in the crash, I have to admit that it's always fascinating to hear about such events through the mouths of children. The minute I walked in the door I got the news from my three oldest, Katie, Tony and Elisabeth. While Katie and Tony were pretty a matter a fact about the incident. "A bus fell over and some people got hurt" my daughter Elisabeth was intent on letting me know that her brother "was going to be on TV."
Now like I said, we are about a mile from the site where this happened. I was pretty sure that my wife hadn't dragged to kids to the site to gawk. And sure enough she hadn't. But as Elisabeth put it... "Tony was dancing around the driveway, waving his arms, and talking to the man in the helicopter. Hey Mr. Cameraman! I wanna be on TV!!!"
Alas, I'm pretty sure that I didn't catch him during the Channel 4 or Channel 7 news. (Yes I did watch to see) But he sure made the headlines in my house!
