“Short track racing is always been a way of life and not just a hobby” Bryan Clauson. There's always been people into dirt racing as it is personally my favorite form of racing. This sport isn't all to safe as there has been a massive tragedy in 2016 of Bryan Clauson as he died at the Belleville Midget Nationals. This tragedy sent a shockwave through all sports from dirt to asphalt racing. There is a commitment when you strap into that racecar and that is there's no guarantee that your going to get out so there's always been losses and historical moments in dirt racing. There isn't always tragedies there's famous moments like the 2016 Dream at eldora when a 19 year old kid Bobby Pierce Jr. won the world's most famous dirt race. 2017 will bring new stars like Rico Abreu which has already committed to dirt from nascar and has already won 2 golden drillers from the world's most prestigious midget race, chili bowl nationals in Tulsa Oklahoma . …show more content…

As Albert Einstein once stated, “ Anyone who has never made a mistake in life has never tried anything new.” As a way to expand my horizons, I, Edwin Montalvo, believe that I would be a valuable member of McGarvin’s pentathlon team. Based on my background knowledge on pentathlon, the use of additional information on various subjects is always essential towards the academic learning. Because of this, I also strive to excel in all my classes, for it is a necessary component of a student and a pentathlete. In addition to knowing background information, I vary my time between academic education and physical education, creating a more balanced lifestyle for me. Furthermore, pentathlon brings a self-learning experience that contributes towards many essential attributes needed in the future, such as
Some race fans would love to have an opportunity to be a part of a race team. If you receive a great opportunity to do a job you have been dreaming about, then you should take the opportunity. If you don’t take the opportunity that you received, then you don’t know if you will ever see that same opportunity. 22 year old Cody Higginbotham has been receiving many great opportunities since he was 12 years old.
These men seemed to know something that nobody else knew when it came to forming a racing and sales complex. They established policies that have existed for the past 50 years, they made predictions that have come true, and they built a horse facility that has lived up to every expectation. But, of course Keeneland was never intended to be just another racetrack. Twenty different sites were looked upon, but Hal Price Headley and company kept com...
Living things have many different emotions, and because of that, they can react to the same situation in myriad ways. Garth Stein’s The Art of Racing in the Rain follows a family of three and their beloved dog on an adventure that involves love, grief, happiness, and death. Enzo is adopted by Denny when he is just a puppy, and observes as Denny’s family grows, along with his bliss. Nevertheless, this does not last when it is discovered that Denny’s wife, Eve has cancer and she soon after dies. Because of Eve’s death and some of the many other events in the characters’ lives, the characters in The Art of Racing in the Rain are all realistic and have many varieties of traits.
The Character that stood out to me the most in “The Art of Racing in the Rain” is Enzo the dog. The whole story is narrated by Enzo. Enzo is a dying dog but he is a thoughtful spirited dog who lives with a family that loves him. He has a knowledge of a human. Even though Enzo is dying he is ready to die because his ultimate destination is to be reincarnated as a human. While I was reading the story I could tell how much passion Enzo towards Denny. He wants the best for Denny. They do everything together, he would help Denny with his racing, and he has a lot of support to Denny.
Olympics fans are missing the fastest paced sport in the world. I think NASCAR should be one of the sports in the olympics. The following will help me get my point across: competitiveness, popularity, and that it is fast-paced.
Cross country and track to an outsider, they can only be seen as running. Well, to a student of the sport they are both so much more. Runners are gathered to both, but there are plenty of variations between the two. Although I love both of these sports, if I had to side with one, I would choose track. These can commonly be seen in training, races, and people.
In conclusion, cross country is way more inferior to track & field. There are many reasons why, that is if you have the same opinion as mine. Truly if I wouldn’t think that cross country is pre-season training for track, I would probably care less about it or be less committed to it.
It was April 14th, 2013. The first race of the Nebraska motocross series. I love the pure adrenaline rush and the competitiveness of racing motocross. I had been riding every chance that I could. My new bike felt amazing in-between my legs. Being way faster than I was on my old bike, I felt like I was going to have a great season. To my friends and I dirt bikes gave us the happiness and freedom that we desired. I was the lucky one that found out that they can also give you sadness and suppression.
Days of Thunder, a 1990 box office classic, displays false information when it comes to the truth behind NASCAR. NASCAR is a professional based company and is headed by only the best. Its new penalty and regulation system and professionalism on and off the racetrack show the truth behind the character of NASCAR. The film Days of Thunder shows a false depiction of the company of NASCAR and prove to show that sometimes even Hollywood, can “get it wrong”.

Paintball is also used to train our U.S troops and police officers! Paintball is now a much more safe sports and is changing the way people spend their spare time every weekend.

The automobile has impacted the world by faster traveling, also making it possible to go farther distances. In this society cars are used to get around but to some people, it’s a way to get around, but to some people it’s a way to express them. From loud engines to hybrids, cars mean a lot more to people than just a way to get around. It has become much more meaningful to people. It has become of a person and how they express themselves.
Equestrian Riding, also known as horseback riding is a sport. Some people may argue that is not because they think the horse is doing all of the work. However that is not true. People do not realize that it takes a lot of to ride a horse and the rider does a lot of work as well and its good exercise too.
In February 2014 hybrid vehicle sales accounted for 2.5% of all vehicles sold in the US according to HybridCars.com. 2.5% sound like a small amount, but that equals 35,611 cars or one hybrid being sold every 1.5 seconds. The hybrid vehicle was created, lead by the original Toyota Prius and Honda Insight, for the purpose of providing an environmentally friendly alternative to the normal combustion engine, but has morphed into a marketing and branding exercise that has been slowly loosing the original “green” values of hybrid ownership.!
