What The Other Half Says About Us

Brandon Peterson · 05-11-2009, 07:02 AM

I could go on for days with the crap i hear when i go racing....lets see "why do you have to go racing again this weekend,if its only 1 day then you shouldn't have to go, do you have to go to this one",then i say well do you wanna come,
'no i don;t want to sit in a camper all day long" call here a few times at the race,what are you doing"sitting at home watching tv"(duh)...."when you lose you better load up and come home don't hang around and watch your friends race".(thanks for the kinds words sweetie).."oh you won great how much did you win, can i get my hair done then"..those are some of the better ones i hear when i go racing....here is the best she has ever done, it was after my son was born.
"you don't need to go racing anymore your a dad now"..my answer was my dad raced when i was a kid look how i turned out,this was as i was walking out the door to go to a combo race 3 years ago..i also get the your never home comments all the time. i say im home monday-friday and usually only race 2 weekends a month when the season comes in

these are pretty funny, the only complaint i here is 'why do we have to leave at 5:30 am? cant we leave later?' that happened just yesterday. on the way back the comments are ' that was a fun day' or 'i like seeing your reaction when you break out' (which doesnt happen often but it this case i was solidly under the index which looked like i won the round haha)

"When can I drive" which has now evolved into "When do you think you'll have my car built"

I can't complain.

Troy - As long as she realizes that you have to get yours together first! haha

My fiance is brand new to drag racing. So far she loves it! When I was out of town on business, she even went to a division race without me to see dad run!!

1st wife-you're not going to drive that car on the street, you're going to race it instead. smartest thing she said to me besides "I want a divorce".

2nd wife-If we go on vacation, can we take the racecars?

She must love it..........she knows the best way to get me to quit is START GOING WITH ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So far that has not happened !!!!!
