Myself, I'm not one for going fast. In fact, I've never even gotten a speeding ticket! But, on the Bray side...that is another story entirely! Mike and his brother, Joe, are both adrenaline junkies, although I think Mike might be a little bit crazier! Joe has definitely passed this "dare-devil" gene onto his three boys. His oldest son, Skyler, is ten and has been racing quarter-midgets for two years now. Landon, who just turned five, has been practicing a lot and wants to start racing as well! I'm afraid that Benny may also have this gene because he was pretty insistent this past weekend at Skyler's race that he wanted to get in a car a race on the track! He watched his entire race (and quite a few others) glued to the fence in amazement. All he kept screaming was, "Go! Go! Go!"

Racing Runs in the Family
From what I've gathered, this is a pretty expensive "activity" to get involved in once you add up the race car, the trailer, the parts, the entry fees, the traveling expenses (races are all over the state and country). Not to mention, it's quite a commitment for the parents as well! We always have a good time cheering Skyler on, but it's not something I would necessarily encourage. Those cars go pretty fast and sometimes they CRASH!! Unfortunately, if it's something Benny really wants to get into, I might be outnumbered on this one!!This was Ben's favorite car...Lightening McQueen, of course!
