I couldn’t pass up an invitation to go down to New Hampshire International Speedway. Fred Neergaard asked if I was going to be credentialed for the race Sunday. Apparently, he has read my blog. The question made its way through many people here at work, and in the end, I was given everyone’s blessing to attend this event.

I have never been to a live NASCAR race. I have never really wanted to go, to be perfectly honest. I enjoy the comforts of my own home…or my Dad’s, which is where we usually watch the race on TV.

I've been credentialed to go in the pits, garage, media center, press box and racetrack. This is all quite foreign to me. I will be leaving Thursday and will be there for all the events taking place throughout the weekend.

I will probably spend most of my time in the garage area, as I might have a pretty good chance of seeing many of the drivers there. If all goes well, I will be doing updates to the blog and uploading photos a few times throughout the day.

Have you ever been to NHIS? Any tidbits you would like to share with me? Are you going to the race? I would love to hear from you.
