One of my favorite events at a race track is Fan Appreciation Night, or Meet The Drivers. It gives us a chance to give back to the fans by letting them see our car up close, maybe talk to some when time permits and sign one of our autograph cards for them. It’s a great night for fans because they get to see their favorite cars up close.
The announcer came on the track and talked to many of the drivers and when he talked to me he asked about our streak that started at 721 in a row at the beginning of this season and on this date, race #19 of 2015, it is at 740. It’s nice to be interviewed, gives me a chance to thank God for good health and a great sport, the track owner, fans and our sponsors.
Sauble gave the fans a deal on the front grandstand, so that was good as well. It was beautiful out weather wise and many fans came down to meet the drivers who brought out their cars.
