Driving the Pace Truck

 

On Saturday June 12 my boss and I stood in for Stormy and drove the Whitneys Auto Group Honda Ridgeline  Pace Truck at Grays Harbor Raceway in Elma.

I have been to a couple of dozen track in 5 different states and Canada as bothpart of a pit crew and spectator, bu never had the opprotunity to assist in “putting on the show”.  Neither one of us had ever done pace truck duty before so we were a little timid at first. The track officals issued us a radio and gave some general instructions, then we were on our own. We had a blast! It gives a whole new perspective on what goes on behind the scenes at a sporing event.
