We like to win,BUT when Howard or Christie losses respect for their sport or does not act in a sportmanslike manner, it is over. No matter where he fininshes in a race, he is expected to shake hands and thank them for a good race. It is a priviledge to participate in such a great sport and I expect him to act that way. This is something alot of parents could learn from at our track. We race with people that yell at their children if they dont do well. We also race with little ones that cry if they lose. The fact of the matter is, in life you will not always win so why set yourslf up for that heartache? Do your best and thats all you can do. It will be hard for Howard as he moves up next season. He is used to being #1, he will be the youngest racing a faster kart with boys in that class with 2-3-years in that class. Christie doesnt compete yet.
I just cant wait...I now have two and a half suitcases packed. Swimsuits and swimshoes, decorations for hotel and cruise, tink gifts (I dont need another thing...and glad I went through it today). Some of this stuff like the baskets I am going to ship down early, I just have them hidden in the suitcase. This really got me excited.
Have yall seen the thread on the picture frame mat? It is so cool. I have gotten our mats for this.
