Emily Earnhardt, March 1997

Nothing better than watching the race after daily house chores. Emily loves the wilderness. Something about the cool breeze high above. The soothing air flowing through her lungs. She loves Jeff Gordon, even though her last name is Earnhardt. No relation. Have you ever stood near the fence during a Nascar race at the Gateway International Raceway? Racecars are literally going 200mph. That's when you know what you see on television is FAR from reality. The SPEED of those cars whisking by can blow you out your boots. So watch out when you hear those engines approaching.... Thunder is coming.
