For the annual Cache Valley Car Show, Howitzer worked with Hendrick Motor Sports and was able to get the Lowe's Chevrolet Impala 48 in town. Donny (the driver who was in charge of the car) showed up Saturday with the trailer. Having just experienced the DeWalt car in April, we didn't expect the awesome show that Lowe's put on. Donny actually fired up the 48 to back out of the trailer, and then shot down the street to the car show entrance. Howitzer was able to get in with the car, and help lead Donny to his spot. We then spent the day at the show, and spent a lot of time by the 48. We also had the special treat of having a "real" race car. The car that was brought was the backup for the Sonoma race. Due to the geographical location, bringing the regular show car was not cost effective.
We also were the help in leading Donny back to the trailer, and giving him an escort to the Lowe's store in Logan. The employees and customers were anxious to see the car. Although the parade did not turn out as hoped, the 48 was still able to make a streak down Main and back. It was more unique to see an illegal street car amongst all the regular Logan traffic. Overall it was a great experience, and we can't wait to go to Charlotte in October and see the Bank of America race (and watch Jimmie win!!!).
