Let me scoot back to the NASCAR Hall of Fame and finish our tour on the 3rd and 4th levels. After our lunch in the Pitstop Cafe, we made our way up to a huge exhibit called "Race Week." Here we got a behind-the-scenes look at what a NASCAR team goes through to prepare for each week's race.
We saw a typical race shop, the Lowes transporter, parts of the race car, and an explanation of the inspection process.
You can imagine our thrill when Dale was just voted into the next class of inductees, joining his father Ned!
The slogan for the NASCAR Hall of Fame is "This is our sport. This is our house." There was a fierce battle between several cities to get this structure and I'm glad that Charlotte beat out the others to win the honor!
