In the past 7 months that Brian has worked for Burns and McDonnell, we have really benefited from the great job. But there also comes quite a few perks as well....one that has especially stood out is when his company provided us the opportunity to drive on the new track at the Kansas City Speedway!
The email told him when to show up and we would just sit in line and then be able to drive on the speedway for a few laps. We were only supposed to go 45 mph...so we debated if it was worth going - but we went anyway.
------------------------------- Round One --------------------------------
We went up the first weekend and Brian was stoked! (I admit it - so was I)
When we got to the front of the line...he was jumpy excited....and the guy noticed that Brian almost had a flat tire!!!!!!! UGH!!!! It was too dangerous to drive on the track so we over to NTB across the road and got the tire patched...but by the time they finished - it was too late to be able to drive on the track...so we drove all the way home.
------------------------------------- Round Two! ------------------------------------
The next weekend; we tried again. And this time - we were successful! We ended up going through the line four times...and the 45 mph was NOT enforced! So Brian got up to 97mph! It was a freaking blast!!!
We were shocked how much of an incline it was! It was a super fun night (sorry, the videos wouldn't upload)! Totally worth the drive to the Legends twice
