Displaying my expertise driving skills and keen eye to avoid other accidents, I was able to weave in and out of the traffic as we all zipped around the track at lightening quick speeds.
Finally, the white flag comes out and I can see victory ahead as on the next lap the CHECKERED flag is waived.
Of course in the heat of the race I was concentrating on my truck so much I wasn't aware that I was lapped and came in LAST place instaed of first!
Oh well, we all got a good laugh out of it and I had mega fun as this was my first race and they told me I would get all wrapped up in driving. Out of 10 trucks, I was one out of four that didn't get in a wreck or shed parts during the 100 lap race. Not bad for my first time out. First place got a trophy four feet tall, second got one 2.5 feet tall and third got one a foot tall. Money was also given, but I don't know how much. I came away with not having to replace any parts on my truck so I count that as a victory. They better watch out next year as this Louisiana Coonass will be back....
