Figure 8 Train Racing 8-6-11 RMR West Valley City, UT

Three cars chained together. The car in the front has a driver and an engine but no brakes. The car in the back has a driver and brakes but no engine. The car in the middle has no brakes, no engine, and no driver.

Racing in a figure ensures that once these things get going, the frontman and the brakeman need to agree whether to go or yield. You can imagine what comes next.

Keep your eye on the purple "Plum Crazy" train. They have a big wreck early in the first half knocking the rear wheel completely off the axle. A few laps later the brakeman is desperately trying to gain control and getting whipped around violently as they approach the crossroads.

Here is what the car looked like after the race: 

If you haven't been to one of these races, I'd highly recommend it. Even if you don't like racing, who doesn't like car crashes?

'Amarillo By Morning' and 'Run' by George Strait - My favorite songs from the concert last night

It was spectacular to experience these songs live last night. All of the songs were great but these were my absolute favorite.

And 2 more just because I have them stuck in my head
