In the think of it!

After months and months of training and preparation it's finally here. This week has been good, we've all had a very good week of training here in Charlotte, and are doing our best not to train as hard as I know we all really want to. However I can feel the tension rising as the day approaches. Everyone around the course is slowly getting a bit harder to approach and the joking is slowly becoming less and less frequent as we all start to crawl out of our skin. I'm doing my personal best to keep the mood more or less stress free and joke with everyone, even though sometimes its met with a harsh backlash its always worth the try. Having all of the set up crews around too, putting up the tents and speaker system is certainly not helping me either. Having all of the speakers scream "testing, testing, testing 1 2" as you round the corner into big drop, is certainly distracting to me. On the other hand though its probably good for me to experience this during training before everything gets under way. With only a day and a half left before the racing begins and roughly 5000 tickets sold I'm certainly feeling the tension too, and certainly starting to get some serious butterfly effect going on in my stomach. I'll do my best to keep everyone updated as the days progress though, it'll probably be some good venting. 

Till next time,
