Award Winning Poem
"Anderson Speedway"
You pull in the pits, You unload the car and grab your tools.
Tonights the night you get your fix, You have your fun kickin it at the Worlds Fastest High Banked Quarter Mile .
Its not about the money, its about who takes home the trophy
and how you hit the High Banks with your ride. The engines are roaring and the fumes burn
your eyes all for the passion and love that never dies. You pull onto the Track
Your nerves begin to start. Cars are bumper to bumper and
the feature is on. Bumping and rubbing and having fun, doing all
that you can to keep from getting passed. Leading the race
and its almost time to brag.You take turn 1
with another racer beside you and you can see his
bumper.Coming out of 2 you jump on the gas, side by side down the backstretch
hes trying to make the pass.You drive deep into 3 and get a run on the high side and
the next thing you know you are going 3 wide.Coming out of 4 and the
checkers start to fly
You won the feature at the Worlds Fastest High Banked Quarter Mile, pull up
to the start/finish line with a smile.Shaking hands with the other competitors and telling
them what a clean race, always show sportsmanship and you will always win the big race in life and the respect of others at the Worlds Fastest High Banked Quarter Mile....
