Oswego Speedway

A few weeks ago Joseph and Kimball went to the Oswego Speedway about an hour north of us.  Watkins Glen Speedway didn't fit into our schedule this year because the race that was a reasonable price and not on a Sunday is too close to the arrival of our babies.  The company Joseph works for sponsors a car at the Oswego Speedway so Joseph got discount tickets and he and Kimball enjoyed some cars and noise.

It was a chilly day, in the 50s, and I had a hard time convincing Kimball that long pants and long sleeves were a must.  Good thing I was persistent because Joseph and Kimball ended up pulling out the emergency blankets that we keep in the car.  Joseph said they wouldn't have been able to endure the race without the blankets because they would have been too cold.  

Before the races there was an hour where you could walk around the track and get pictures
and autographs with the drivers.  Here is Kimball posing by a car.

Checking out the car.

Joseph and Kimball had a fun time even though they were cold.  It was really noisy and they had forgotten the ear plugs.  Oops!  There were a few accidents and some of the drivers had to be taken away in ambulances.  It was a fun time and they would like to go back again next year.
