In the middle of all, I got to do a couple of racing related bucket list items
- Got to visit Daytona during initial 2012 testing, before the 500. This included 3 laps around the track at 165MPH in a race car. Wow.
- Got to attend the spring race in Phoenix, including time in the pits.
It was awesome as you might imagine. Was also awesome to see & experience cars with 30+ times the horsepower of my racer.
