Fierce side by side action, on a fast track, and at 9 years old I had my foot on the brake for half the race. My grandpa who got me into racing go-karts was with me and to this day doesn’t let me live this whole thing down. Racing the go-karts has always been around since I can remember and is a great bonding experience for me and my grandpa, and it has also shown me to face my fears.
This situation is very embarrassing as a racer, and this particular situation is embarrassing at any level of racing competition. I have learned from it, but as far as where this nervousness and fear came from I’m not quite sure of. The nervousness and fear of racing when I was 9, I believe came from watching my grandpa race a few weekends before my little incident. Me and my uncle went to watch him race, during the race he flipped his go-kart, after another driver spun out on the front of the track, and shot down to the low side of the dirt oval. My grandpa didn’t have time to react and hit the front of the other driver’s

When the time comes I will have my kids ride the same old white go-kart my grandpa and everyone who has started riding go-karts with us has started on. Then if my children decided to I will help them and let them race. The bonding experience with one of my most father like figures in my life is very satisfying and is important to me. That I think will carry over and be a bonding experience for me, and my kids, and grandkids. I have learned a lot about racing and the mechanical part of the go-karts, and the most important thing I have learned from all of it is to face my fears. I faced my fears by getting back in the seat and racing and in turn I have gotten over that fear of crashing and now I love to go racing on the weekends in Indiana and Ohio. I still need to work on my fear of doing badly, but that is what drives me to do better. I might be able to do that by not being so hard on

Olympics fans are missing the fastest paced sport in the world. I think NASCAR should be one of the sports in the olympics. The following will help me get my point across: competitiveness, popularity, and that it is fast-paced.
I woke up at six to shower and eat breakfast. We were out the door and 6:30 and off to Ashland, Nebraska. We had the hammer down only stopping in Ashland to grab three Red Bulls apiece. We chugged our energy drinks while driving a couple miles out of town to the raceway hoping to get awaken by the rush of the sugar. We parked our truck by our buddy Jacob after getting signed in and paying our entry fees. We made fun of Jacob for awhile for being such a die hard and having to be one of the first ones at the track. Setting up our canopy and unloading our bikes took about 5 minutes because we wanted to hurry up and walk the track. The track was a freaking mud pit. They had overwatered it. I was hoping that it would stay a little muddier after practice until the moto’s because I could out ride three-fourths of the guys in my class in the mud. After the track walk we all walked back to our trucks and got our gear on. The C riders were first to practice. The first kid to start up his bike just revved the piss out of it not letting it warm up like it should. We started shaking our heads because our dads taught us to respect your things and not mistreat them. Leaving our little camp
Four wheeling has been one of my family’s favorite activities for my whole life. Both of my parents even grew up riding. They kept the tradition of riding in our family by giving me my first four wheeler when I was five years old. I would take it on miniature trail rides until it eventually gave out and I had to hop on with my parents. We have continued that tradition by going on many four wheeling trips every summer.
I've been four wheeling since I was about three. Id say its pretty fun when you're not busy crashing. My favorite thing about four wheeling is having the wind blow in my face, it makes me feel free in a way. When i'm with my family four wheeling nothing can stop us so you better watch out. My best experience while riding a four wheeler was when I was about nine my grandpa and my four year old sister were together on one four wheeler and I was on my own we were riding down the road when my grandpa said “ Aryona do you want to go down there?” i was a little scared at first, but he told me it would be okay, so i said “yes.” Once we got down there I was happy I decided to go because It was awesome! One of my favorite things about
On Saturday, September 26th, we had an amazing event. We had the color run also known as the Happiest 5k on the Planet. It is on almost every single continent on the Earth. A lot of people go to these events to run and they also go to have fun. This run is the best 10-minute run you will ever have and it is about having the time of your life.
Eight and a half hours away in Destin, Florida, my family went camping at Topsail Hill Campground. We go camping with our family friends every Thanksgiving, who have 3 older boys who love to do daring stunts on their bikes. So, my brother and I decided we wanted to try some too. We went into the middle of the forest where there was a path near a steep drop that was perfect for biking. We started off easy and did some bunny hops and wheelies to get warmed up. Suddenly, I had this great idea to learn how to ride without my hands. My brother and I kept practicing all day. I eventually got the hang of it, but my brother was getting very frustrated because he couldn't get it. He was getting so mad and reckless that he slipped and feel down the steep hill getting clobbered by his bike. Luckily, he didn't break anything, except for his bike. What we didn't see was the huddle of turkeys staring my brother down ten feet away from him. The turkeys starting slowly walking towards the little traumatized boy lying on the dirt, and eventually started pecking at him. The other three boys and I ran down there to shoo them away from my brother. Once it was all settled down we laughed about it and told our parents. That was my favorite Thanksgiving memory.
...rint car tracks all around the country and it is truly a rural phenomenon. I feel that now I better understand the sport and what all is involved, I can finally appreciate sprint car racing for what it is. Through all of this research my interest has grown to heights that were before unimaginable. I cannot wait until springtime so I can head down to the track and take in my first sprint car racing experience. I know it will be a great experience that will help me better connect with my friends and become more in tune with my community
Imagine that you’re driving on an open highway in the middle of summer. All you see in front of you is asphalt for miles and miles. The windows are down and your favorite song comes on the radio. You’re behind the wheel of a Tesla Model S, the newest electric car that can go from zero to sixty miles per hour in 2.4 seconds. This will soon be the future of all motor vehicles. Electric cars are beginning to have colossal impacts on our society because of their energy efficiency, performance benefits, and the fact that they are less harmful to the environment. In the near future, electric cars will dominate the road and eventually the planet’s overall need for oil will decrease immensely.

and I were pretty scared because it was our first race. It was a sunny day with a little bit of wind.
My grandpa had many hobbies over the years, but none as big as him and his ultralight planes. My grandpa has an obsession with flying. My grandpa also taught me how to drive. When I was only 14 he took me to the farm in his Ram 1500 and he let me drive around the property just to learn how to drive.
