Girls Gone Racin' takes straight and narrow path

ST. CHARLES, Mo. -- While bats are swinging on the west side of the Big Muddy tomorrow night, there will be a completely different kind of action going down just across the river. If the consistent recommenation by friends to wear ear protection is any indication, it is highly possible that the cheers of the crowd at the new Busch Stadium may be drowned out by the roar of the engines at Gateway International Raceway.

This weekend Gateway welcomes the American Drag Racing League Fatheadz.com Gateway Drags, and Girls Gone Racin' will be there to witness the action. Not only is this the first event in our inaugural season, but it is also the first time either of us has been to a drag race. With that in mind, we are prepared to be awed by the power, noise and quickness of these cars.

Plans for Girls Gone Racin' have been in the works for quite some time, and we have put together a schedule of events that will cover many different types of racing. Please join these two "Moms on a mission" as we leave husbands and kids at home and venture out into the male-dominated world of racing. As veteran oval track fans, we are excited to see just what the fuss is all about when it comes to running a straight line. The ear plugs are packed and ready to go. It's time to get this party started.
