NASCAR

First rule -- Don't knock it until you try it.

Dallas and I flew to Phoenix for less than 36 hours for our NASCAR inaugural event. Now I've been to a lot of various sporting events, but this is one of the most exciting things you will do.

We had pit passes and got to see things "up close and personal". Jeff Gordon, the only NASCAR driver from Northern CA, ended up taking the victory.

Try it -- if not, don't knock the left turns.
