Drag Race + Chili's = Dream Date Come True... HA!

Once again Greg got us tickets to another Nascar-esque event... and we had so much fun! I'm beginning to feel like we fit in... we're practically regulars at Rocky Mountain Raceways :)  We invited our friends Andrew & Celeste and got a sitter for our kiddies.  Just a simple date night with good company.  We had dinner at Chili's and met up with some of Greg's co-workers.  Andrew was able to fill us in on all the Nascar terms and explained exactly what was happening, (like why the guy who finished first actually lost without being disqualified, yeah... it needed explaining.)  
Who's the guy who thought of making this classic fire truck blow flames off the back?
Needless to say it was a blast :)  It even "popped wheelies" WATCH OUT!
Lame... uncomfortable... and orange.  I EMBRACED THESE THINGS!  The races were deafeningly LOUD!  Especially the Jet Engine cars... whoa.  We were so glad Tyler brought some extras, it wouldn't have been a fun night holding my ears plugged the entire time.

WHAT?  WHAT WAS THAT!?  YOU WANT A PAIR OF THESE SWEET EARPLUGS?
Greg... keep this jacket in mind for me come Christmas time, k?
