I have always loved going to Bakersfield for the week of the March Meet and HRR starting the the week out on Thursday night at the large car show in the parking lot of Chuy's and the Roadhouse where John Hale always displayed his nostalgia fc and then treated his team and myself to a steak dinner in the Roadhouse, or firing up the Hot4Teacher fc at Hooters or Chuy's . There is nothing like starting the morning out with a 3 egg, country potatoes,, biscuit and gravy, and a ham steak as big as Dallas breakfast at Zingos with a number of the other teams. Then seeing some awesome racing all day before finishing out the night at the Wool Growers for dinner, or the Worshams blown nitro margarita mixer party at the track. It is always cool to see Cruz Pedregon or Richard Hartman bring their cars west to run out here also. But, the past few years I have really missed seeing the Worshams fc, Heads fc, Hot4Teacher fc, Nitro Cowboy fc, John Hales fc and Pluegers fc. Now there will be another void in my excitement level with the departure of the High Speed NTF team.
