As a part of the family reunion, we took a tour of the Motor Speedway. I guess a trip to Charlotte isn't complete without one.  I'm not a NASCAR fan, but when else would I be able to go on the track and it's new and interesting? The price for me was $6, due to Military discount. My niece, who is not even 2, was charged $5. We all piled into the van and headed out to the track. Suddenly, our driver turns off the air so we could hear her! Ah! Too many bodies and too hot for the air not to be on. \n\nThe tour was pretty neat though. Our guide drove us around the track and different areas while she explained the history of the track and how things operate. Then she went on the actual track, which was cool because on TV, the track looks flat, but it's not. She stepped on the gas, and we rode 2 laps around the track. The first time, she drove to the top of the bank, stopped so we could feel , and we were leaning sideways. Then, we all hopped out and took pictures in the winners circle.  The whole this was a pretty awesome experience. I can only imagine what that place is like around race time.
