Just got back from the track

I’ll be the first to tell you I know absolutely nothing about racing. What I can say about the 57th Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring is that there were a ton of cool cars, thousands of people, and the track. The smell of gasoline permeated the air and high-pitched whirring could be heard as the cars thundered around the course. Cameras flashed, lighting up small sections of the night, and people yelled in each others’ ears to be heard over the roaring engines. Sparks flew as the racers braked at the turns, and blue flames shot from the exhaust pipes. All in all, the race was an exciting event, even for someone like me who finds little entertainment in fast vehicles running around a track. I was lucky enough to be within 30 feet of the Winner’s Circle, and got to watch as the trophies were passed out. We came very close to catching one of the hats that was thrown by a driver, as it just barely grazed our fingertips. I got pictures of some very nice cars on my cell phone, but unfortunately have no way to move them to my computer, so on my phone they will stay.
