Bonneville

We headed to Wendover, NV to watch my Dad at World Finals at Bonneville.  We did not know what to expect, and ended up having a great time.  It was so much fun to watch my Dad race, see everyone's reactions to his car and just experience the 'old school' car world.  Although there is a lot of down time, we had a great time with my parents, Williane, and the Pit Crew (Mike & Ron).  I'm so proud of you Dad!  The work and dedication you put into this race was quite astonishing, and I'm so honored to call you my Dad!

Good Morning Salt Flats!

Getting taken to the starting line
Getting ready to watch Bob Bob run for the first time

Making friends with the starting crew

Waiting for Bob Bob to get cleared....rollover accident had just happened.  A little weird looking at you dad strapped into the car ready to go, and plume of black smoke appears from a crash.

Are we on the moon dad?

The fenders draw quite a bit of interest from the spectators

Safety First!

And here we go....

into oblivion

We got to play a little bit too...riding Mike's fun little bike
First time on a 'motorcycle'

Kyle was obsessed with the salt.  If he wasn't licking it off the ground & tires, he was taking it off all the equipment & cars.

Woo Hoo, the parachute came out (2nd run of the day no parachute came out - ooops)
Bye Bye Wendover, until next year.....
