What an incredible Friday night we had at the NASCAR Charity Event! With 25 cars revving up the excitement, it was a blast from start to finish.
We kicked off the evening gathering at Safeway at 5:15, eagerly awaiting our scheduled lap time of 7:30. As we socialized and soaked in the anticipation, the organizers lined us up two by two. Right on cue, at 7:30, we hit the track, led by the Track Pace Car for five exhilarating laps under the green.
With 20 vehicles at a time escorted by the Pace Car, our size meant the EMCC had to be split into two runs, but that only added to the thrill. Between laps, we parked up in the paddock, taking the opportunity to tour the area, mingle with other car owners and clubs, and bask in the electric atmosphere.
The turnout was incredible, with over 350 cars from the valley joining us at the track, and the numbers kept climbing as we took our laps. And let’s talk about the weather – we couldn’t have asked for a more picturesque evening at such a stunning location. It truly was a night to remember, and from the smiles on everyone’s faces, it’s clear that a fantastic time was had by all.
A huge thank you to all the attending members for contributing to the fun and camaraderie. Your enthusiasm and support made the event unforgettable.
And to top it off, I’ve heard there are more photos and videos out there, capturing even more memories from the night. Jordan has already shared a few on the EMCC Facebook page, so be sure to check those out.
Here’s to many more unforgettable nights like this one!
Best,
Bill Owen, President
