Fun Ford Weekend, one of the last races of the year, and Baeleigh's first official introduction to the racing world. She's helped Dad out in the garage on numerous occasions. (As a matter of fact, the kid can probably identify more tools than I can.) There was a litte trepidation on my part, given that she's been scared before at the starting up of the Cobra, but boy did she prove me wrong.
Apparently, Bae had the idea that SHE actually would be doing the driving. After several "Why?" sessions later, she seemed resolved to just watch. Yeah right... Bae spent the day running after Dad, dodging in and out of the trailer, testing out Dad's ride, and walking around pretending to be a race car driver (hence the helmets). Corita and I dubbed them "The Bobbleheads". If it weren't for the fact that they were top heavy and prone to just toppling over, I think they would have worn those helmets ALL DAY LONG. The Bobbleheads passed out for a nap in the car somewhere late that afternoon. Thanks to the DVD system in the car. After a long weekend, Baeleigh was glad to have another trophy on brief display in her room with Tommy winning the Factory Stock class.
