Two other cars taking off. The car in the far lane ended up being Cheney's favorite of the night, besides the "flame thrower cars".
Cheney enjoying his $5 lemonade. Yummy!
This was one of the coolest cars there. It had an amazing paint job of an alligator. As we were checking it out, one of the crew leaders came over and talked to us and told Cheney to crawl inside it so I could take his picture. Everyone we talked to and met was so friendly. We could have just hung out with them all night.
The Raceway also had a small midway set up along side pit road and we of course HAD to slide down the slide a few times.
THEN CAME THE LOUD "TOP FUEL DRAGSTERS". THESE CARS LITERALLY SHOOK THE GROUND AND STANDS AND YOU COULD FEEL YOUR WHOLE BODY SHAKING WHEN THEY WENT DOWN THE TRACK!
When it got dark, the light show the cars put on when the flames would shoot out of the exhaust was amazing. Sorry about the blurry picture but when the cars are going 250 mph, it's hard to capture them properly. I think you get the idea though.
This is the "Wheelie Bus". It did a wheelie ALL the way down the 1/4 mile track. This thing got the loudest cheer of the night.
Just a cool car we saw by the pits when we were leaving. It's a cool "rat rod".
Let me explain: As we were leaving, the "triple jet engine semi truck" came up to make a pass down the track. By the time it got to the starting line Cheney and I were almost directly behind it. This thing started its afterburners and warming up and the next thing I know is that we were COVERED in smoke and exhaust that we couldn't even see 3 feet in front of us. I gave Cheney his jacket to cover his face and eyes from the smoke. This lasted for about 3 minutes. IT WAS AWESOME. hahaha
Thanks for letting us Hijack your blog Mommy (and for letting us have a boys night out). We love you!!!

Glad you enjoyed your "men's night out". I am sure Mommy and Chandler were just as happy not to go.

Hey, I think I saw you in the stands when we went by there last night! Could you even find your car when it was over? The lot was packed!
Welcome to blog world, Billy!!! Cool pics!!!
Cheney & Daddy-I am sooo glad that you had a great time together. Also, I was happy that you left me at home to clean out closets. As crazy as it sounds to the two of you, I had FUN!!!
Wow, What a night out.............
Cheney is your Daddy going to let you drive those kind of cars? I don't think I would care to see all that exhaust and sound. Glad you had fun.
