Jacob's Review:  There was all these cars racing around and 1 got on fire and I picked the guys that won! You could ride on the race cars too, the kids could sit on the back; but they didn't race fast with kids in the cars, so don't think it was dangerous.

Dad's Notes:  A good time for a family Saturday Night! The cars are fast and loud - the deep voiced announcer and the crowd adds to the excited atmosphere - Jacob liked to pick which car was going to win and then would get excited if his car was winning!
     Of course the hot dogs, pizza and things are a special treat. They have a souvenir shop, snack bar, Sno Cones and an adult bar. The intermission always includes some special activity, event or entertainment from kids car rides, kids bicycle races, silver rush and more. The races can run late so after intermission I sometimes tell Jacob it's the last race and we leave after that!
