I also could title this post “My 1st favorite team this year and forever” if I were to follow the naming convention from this earlier post about my 2nd favorite team.

One of the things I really wanted to do with my kids on this trip back to the USA was to go to the races with my dad. Last Sunday we had that chance. We went to I-80 Speedway at Nebraska Raceway Park. Pappa was excited to go because NASCAR Nextel Cup Superstars Ken Schrader [...]
