Firebird-NHRA AZ Nationals pics and commentary....
Lynn, Holly, Grandma and I went to the AZ Nationals at Firebird today.We will be there tomorrow, too...with a surprise (hopefully I will be able to post it) as well.
It was a nice almost 80 degree day here and we had a great time. We arrived at the track about 8am and they were just unloading the cars from the rigs...
