As I said in my last entry, I have a lot to say about my return to the drift track! Time stops for no one. Benson is coming home late tonight, which gives me exactly 20 minutes to write this entry. Whew.
Background
Two weeks ago I finally made it back to the drift track. Its been shamefully, almost 4 years since my eyes have been hit with tires and dirt. Between getting my life together after having Elise, raising a teenager, working on my accounting career, running Drifting Pretty, buying a new house and keeping the family happy…where is there time for drifting? There isn’t. But as my old buddy Yoshie preached a long time ago, “if its that important to you, you will find a way to find money and make time for driving.”
The biggest hurdle was getting my car to the track. I can’t drive it and I have no truck and trailer. I am very lucky to have friends that will bend over backwards to tow the Drift Queen to the track. Thank you Chris. He lives near the track and made 2 trips back and forth from Lancaster to Temple City. THAT is friendship.
Benson named this stray “Gary Busey.” He likes to come and visit our outdoor cat Vera Wang. He is TORE up.
As we prepare for summer break, we’re touring preschools for Elise and college prep courses for Kristy.
Another advantage I have over the guys…I shop at craft stores with hot duct tape!
my daughter Kristy helped design my new sticker scheme…its multi-functional design ensures my bumper doesn’t fall apart!
(taken with my iPhone) the DriftQueen runs for the 1st time, in…2 years. She starts on the 1st try with no problems.
