So I am all about race car driving! I just went to my first Indy car race today or qualifying race. We were there with Dan Wheldon, from the Panther Racing Team and The National Guard Youth Foundation. Dan is sponsored by The National Guard and it was so nice of The Panther Racing Team to have me and some of the kids from The Sunburst Academy, the local Youth Challenge program, there to be apart of their big day. The Southern Los Angeles Representive, B.J. Lamothe and Congresswoman, Napolitano also came to the event and they spoke about how they achieved their dreams and if you work hard, you can too. What a wonderful treat to have them here today. So inspiring! There are so many people that go into making a race happen. Who knew? They make it look so easy and everybody's part is just as equally important as Dan, the race car driver. This was an exciting day and I definitely learned a lot. We also got to see a celebrity race. Brian Austin Green, Keanu Reeves, and many more were all racing for their favorite charity. I love that! Hmmm! Maybe I need a race car to win some money for my kids with The National Guard Youth Foundation. I'm gonna need a LOT of practice! HaHa! I can't wait for the next race! XoXo Laura
