Waiting for the Racing!

   I am a huge dirt track race fan. On any given Saturday night in the summer you will find me at a dirt track somewhere. Two of my favorite tracks are Oakshade and Eldora. Since Nascar started this week-end, it is reminding me of how much I am itching to get to the races.
   I miss the smell of racing fuel, motor oil, and the hot tires laying down rubber on the dirt. The drivers doing slide jobs under the car in front of them. Finding out where my son starts in the race, better off where he finishes, and if he beat his friend or not (the loser buys the burgers). My favorite food is the Polish sausage, with onions and peppers, that they make at Oakshade.
   We always have a great time when we go to the races. You meet new and old friends there. When at Eldora, we usually camp with a ton of people, from Ohio. Kentucky, Missouri, and Pennsylvania. Everyone brings food and drinks, we eat constantly and if you drink you don't have to worry about driving anywhere because your staying. People come from all over the country to watch and race at Eldora.
   Eldora starts racing  on April 2, but I probably won't go until the 16th when the late models start racing, Oakshade starts April 30th. Until then I'm just "Waiting for the Racing."
