I started this blog as a class assignment and choose something I could continue on and cared about. However since I lost my NASCAR Buddy and the women who was like a second mother to me this blog has taken on special meaning and I dedicate this blog to her as it is now my only way to share the NASCAR news we would talk about if she were still hear today I love you mom 2 and I always will you were gone far to soon and I miss you everyday this blog is dedicated in loving memory to you.
Well I first want to apologize for having not put a post on here since February school and work have not left me with much time to write a post. With that said i'm finally back and I get out of school in a few weeks so hopefully I can keep it up better over the summer. What a crazy start to the season we've had with the multiple close finishes on the cup series and now with Kyle Busch's hot streak. I know there are many fans who are upset that he is winning all these races. All I have to say is that it doesn't matter what Kyle does or doesn't do fans will still find things to be mad at Kyle for but he's an incredible talent of the sport and he does a lot for his fans as well. The story he did for the fan in post race traffic was amazing. She is one lucky lady and I wish I was in her shoes. Today I was so pleased to see Erik Jones finally get a win everyone has been able to see it's coming. However I was so thrilled to see him win and then I saw his emotional phone call. I thought it was sweet at first thinking he was so emotional over his win as it when on it became clear that wasn't the reason and it made me a little concerned however finding out that he was talking to his parents and learning his dad was diagnosed with cancer it made me even happier he won. I feel so bad for Erik he's the same age as my younger sister and although he always seems more mature then 19 it's easy to see how young he looked during that phone call. My prayers go out to Erik his sister and his parents. It once again shows how the NASCAR community supports each other the support I've seen for Erik since he announced that news is amazing. This marks the second time I've seen one of my drivers truly break down the other being denny in 2009 after his grandmother passed away. I love that my drivers are so close to their families it's one of the things I love about them the most. Watching Erik cry today was pretty heartbreaking especially after I learned why he was crying. I want to wish the best for all my drivers personally and professionally and I hope Erik's dad can beat this cancer. Sorry my post is so short I thought it would be longer but it just stopped so I let it. For those of you who haven't seen the phone call or denny's moments i'm posting links here for you to check out. Thanks for reading and i'll hopefully have another post sooner rather than later.
