A little racing movie I made...

**anna_66** · 06-19-2006, 08:32 AM

A couple of weeks ago Robin (Robilee) and Alden (Robin's husband), Amy (cincy's mom), Ralph & Carl (Amy's husband & dad) all went to Eldora Speedway which is a dirt track that Tony Stewart owns here in Ohio.
There were many cup drivers coming including Kyle Petty & Dale Jr.

The day started out great but unfortunately it rained too much so they had to call the race off

The good news was we get to go back in September!

I got quite a few good pictures if you'd like to see them HERE and I also took some video and made my own little movie that I'm pretty proud of

Eldora Movie

Hope you enjoy and thanks for looking!

Love,love that movie! What talent you have Anna! I have viewed it - well I don't know how many times. Pics were great too. I know Amy and Ralph are going beck in September but Carl still hasn't decided. I think he just had too much fun in the rain and can't stand to think about having so much more!!! I am still glad I didn't go but I am glad that everyone else did and had a great time doing so!

I love the video! I've watched it several times. Passed it along to Brandon too and he enjoyed it. Of course he is jealous though and wishes he could go back with us. Need to show mom. I know she will get a kick out of it too. You are going to have to teach me how to do the video stuff. I don't have a clue as to how to do that.

I don't care if it did rain..lol. I had a good time! Can't wait to go back in Sept. and hopefully we will actually see a race.

Here are a few of my pics:

Anna, great video. You are very talented putting that all together. loved
the music too.

I've never seen a pace TRUCK before.

**Cincy'sMom** · 06-19-2006, 05:24 PM

I still keep watching the video!! What a blast it was, even if it did rain!! Like Anna said, at least we get to go back...not bad for a $25 ticket! Actaully I'm not sure if Ralph is sure if even is going back yet...but I put in for my vacation the very next day!! Robin, if my dad and Ralph don't go, I may have 2 tickets to offer Brandon!

Our seats were a bit further out then Anna and Robin's, (since Mark didn't think about inviting us until AFTER he ordered theirs

) so my pictures are more grainy then theirs, but here's a few anyway...

One of the Sprint cars Tony owns (Which will be running July 8 in Toledo if anyone is ineretsed!)

Denny, Kurt, Kevin and Kyle

There goes Denny

Tony scolding the crowd for booing Kurt

Denny succesfully completes his laps

The reason for the event...to raise money for the Victory Junction Gang

Looks for more pics in Septmeber!!

Now there's one event I would love to have been at. Everybody who's anybody was there weren't they? ......And.....who doesn't love Kurt Busch?

You got some great shots Anna. Let us know how the return trip goes. That's just too cool that you went to Tony's dirt track. Dirt track has always been my favorite kind of racing. Thanks for sharing!!

I recognized Mark Martin but who is Tony Stewart?

**RobiLee** · 06-20-2006, 02:23 AM

Hey, wasn't he that guy in the orange car that crashed in Michigan

You mean the guy tough enough to beat on a car despite a broken shoulder? Yeah, that is him!!

How did Martin finish anyway? Seems like maybe he dropped a few places in the points too, but i didn't see anybody shoving him into the wall

Eww, OUCH! That hurt, Amy!

Amy, if your dad or Ralph aren't going to be able to go make sure you let me know. I'm certain Brandon would be interested in the tickets.

Loved seeing all the pictures again!

**Pam** · 06-20-2006, 03:56 PM

Anna you have some real talent! I loved the video and music.

I have forwarded this thread on to some *die hard* NASCAR lovers in the family. How come no Bobby Labonte pictures?

**Almita** · 06-20-2006, 03:59 PM

love it! You guys got to meet Dale Jr. I know him well my dad is friends with the guy that is with Dale Jr. I love the pictures. I see someone is a Tony fan over there?!
