Number 88 Finally Won!!!!
We watch NASCAR almost every weekend. Jackson is really into it and he loves Earnhardt, Jr.--who has not won all year long! On Sunday we were watching the race, but then left to go out to lunch for Father's Day. When we got home, Kaleb saw online that Junior had in fact won the race that day!! So we turned on the TV, and Kaleb was able to rewind back to the race...We didn't tell Jack who won & we let him watch it. It was so nerve-wrecking, even though I knew who was going to win!!
Here is a picture of the screen, with Junior in 1st place, under the caution flag with 2 laps to go....He was almost out of gas, and had to keep switching his engine on & off over and over, to try to make it!!
Since I already knew Junior was going to win, I had my camera ready....here was Jack's reaction to Junior winning! You can see right next to him, he has his Nascars all lined up & ready to "race!"
Junior's team had to push him to the winner's circle, because he ran out of gas RIGHT after he crossed the finish line!! That was a close one :)
