It's only like that when he is around. She is so different when we are alone. Maybe she is just scared that he won't like it. And then i won't understand why she only wants to sit next to me. Always when she goes to bed she talks on whatsapp to me for a very long time. She kinda knows what hour i wake up and also then keeps sending me. Maybe i just made a wrong assumption that she might've liked me allot but i'm confused at the moment.

And 2 days ago when we were in the car, she was constantly teasing me with some stickers and laughing at me. So really, what the f*ck?

Bleh, I'm also in a stupid situation myself right now.

I haven't said much to the girl for the past 2 days and when she asked me something I would mostly shortanswer her and avoid convo's. I just feel a bit pissed and annoyed.

The guy she works for at trackdays, driftschools etc... is also here and whenever we go somewhere it seems like I don't exist anymore for that time. When we are alone, we talk and laugh allot and it's really nice. But once we go to the mall or something and it's the 3 of us, she just sticks with him and it seems like they're ignoring me for that time. Not sure if it's on purpose or if she is just concetrated on other stuff for that moment.

He also acts different. If she is on the track shooting pictures and the others guys are here he always is loud, and says stuff like "I like Danica Patrick but it's a shame she has such small tits". She knows I never say stuff like that even when she's not around. He is 20 years older then here and far from attractive, I know she won't fall for him but it kinda sucks being threated like that. I will tell her today how I feel and I don't like it at all. But with no one around.

And she thinks he's not like that. Also for the first few days we where together the others would barely wait for us when going somewhere. After that she got pissed a few times at him and now he's all acting nice and caring when they're alone and he seems to ignore the others too.

Kinda stupid, because this is the end of our holiday and don't want to end it like that. We're now going somewhere and I hope I can tell how I feel....

Lol :P

I've seen some pics of the wheel, allot of suspension parts where still on it. Was hard!

But I rarely happens in oval racing that a wheel jumps over the fence. But the things is, it also happened at the weakest part of the fence, in one of the entrance doors. If it's been a few meters sooner or later, nothing would've happened. And we were damn lucky, that there weren't allot of spectators on the front rows. There would've been allot more injuries if there were.

Thanks, i'm fine!

We we where far from it but offcourse seeing it happens really shakes you up.

For those not knowing what we are on about:

Engine + wheel was stuck IN the fence, one wheel flew over and landed in the grandstand. Allot of debris flew around. But here you can see how good these fences are designed. Imagine what happen if both wheels AND the engine went further...

Yep, will be really busy...

Imo, the trucks weren't as spectacular as normal. They did 50 laps without crashing. After that there where a few yellows but no big ones happened. Shame about the finish. Kyle Busch had something for the last lap...

Ahwell, it's pretty cool to see in real. And they sound a bit more agressive then the other cars.

Ahyeah, we planned to go for a last day to Orlando premium outlets and do some other things there....

Quote from Cornys :Scary crash for the Modified with the fire and all being upside down. Glad that he was okay.

In general I find that I like the Southern United States much more than the Northern as far as hospitality. On the other hand, you're more likely to find somebody from the south who is extremely closed minded. I find this rather aggravating myself

Florida however (on the peninsula anyways) requires a good amount of money to live on. This makes it a nicer place to visit . The people in Daytona while I was on vacation there were really nice. I expect that you are experiencing the same?

Is it very busy in town yet Scrabby?

Also you might enjoy this video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_gcNKeTZYo&safe=active

Yep, thats what i mean. People here are nice and everything. Its not that busy yet here but i guess on the 24th it will be alot more. I will definitely come back next year, but with a bit more other non-racing things to do.

Maybe it just depends where you are... But in general, people here are much nicer than in Belgium and surrounding countries...

And allot of things that are so much better than i know them in Europe. But every country has it flaws

Today we go to Fort Lauderdale. Do some shopping (again ) and visit St. Augustine Alligator Farm. No idea if it's interesting at all, but we'll see


Le me, chilling at the beach.

Woops sorry! Yes i was at the race. We will be at every race untill it's over. Also been the the beach legends yesterday. Awesome little cars and tomorrow we go to the beach parade.

Today is Daytona 500 Qualifying, after that we go do some sushi and after that the others are going to Smyrna race, while me and le girl are going to the movies/mall

****, i love this country. Shame that the internet ruins the whole image of americans. Yes, Nascar exists 50% of beer drinking, shouting rednecks but the other half is so decent. Everyone is polite, greets, says sorry etc. I've allready talked to loads of guys/girls at the tracks. Especially when they hear we're from Belgium/Germany, they are super excited that we come over just for that. Only thing bad so far is... When i will see a new Camaro, charger, challenger, mustang, corvette at home, i'll be like: "Alright", instead of "Sweet!". So much over here, it's unreal.

Now leaving to Best Buy and then to the track. And i've bought myself an iPad 2

No, but everyone is going to be there around 7.00h. They said we need to be there that early
You have to be there 2-3h in advance.
And everything goes very slow here in Belgium, so it's really needed to be on time

I will take my ipod with me and put some music on it

I'm also considering if I have enough money left, to buy an Ipad 2 at best buy. They come around 300€ now for the 16GB version.

Quote from ACCAkut :nah you get your own lil screen, and tons of movies, series, musicals, football games etc. to choose from. Singapore Airlines even had some A1GP and Super GT races to watch when I flew with them (~12 hours).

Better bring you own good headphones and try to get some sort of adapter to connect them to the inflight system, the headphones they hand out are pretty much shit. They sell those adapters in the airports I guess.

And nothing wrong with books. They don't need batteries.

Ah sweet, then it will be allright

Books are okay, but I can't read for that long. My eyes start to hurt then

Should've expected that! And no, I'm not going to enter the Mile High Club either.

And I'm not really fussed about watching a movie on my Samsung Galaxy S plus . I either don't have a tablet (yet). They show movies in the plane, like on ye old bustrips?
How to survive a 10 hour flight?

So, this thursday I'm leaving to the US of A. I have 2 flights. One long one from Brussels Airport to Atlanta and one short one from Atlanta to Orlando. From Orlando to Daytona Beach we drive.

What is the best way to keep myself entertained during the 10h flight to Altanta? It's my first time ever flying, I'm not feared of flying but rather feared of being bored to death. And I can't sleep in moving vehicles etc..

I allready have my camerabag etc.. as handluggage so can't take my laptop in the plane.

On the short flight (1-2h) I have my "gf" sitting next to me so that won't be boring.

Any helps?

Most truck are restricted to that (i say MOST m'kay?)

But I was in the UK last month going to a private driftevent with a friend of mine. We had a landrover defender (newer model) and trailer + car. We were doing 120km/h (over speedlimit for that i think) and a truck passed us! We were like "WTF". Never seen a normal truck + trailer going over 90km/h in my life and it just kept going like that in turns... We never saw him again, what a boss
