Here are a few pics from the NASCAR race at Kansas Speedway this weekend. Went to the Nationwide race on Saturday and the Cup race on Sunday. Was able to get some hospitality tickets and get free food and free be...uh soda's and a pit tour. These aren't all of the pictures, but a few of the more interesting one's.

Prior to the race, these guys parachuted out of a helicopter, was pretty amazing

Was a great time, and a near perfect day for my Birthday. Received birthday messages from Linda, my sister, my brother and even got a call from my Dad (he did remember!)

Any other race fans? Maybe a GCC event at next years Nationwide or Truck series race?

Great photos. Great finish to a race.

My younger son works for FOX SPORTS SOUTH and is working on getting us "Press Passes" for the Atlanta race. Last year he spent a lot of time in the pits and hanging around the Cup cars.
