Chris and I went to see Racing Dreams today and thought it was pretty good. It won several awards for Best Documentary. It's currently playing at the Regal Crossroads 20 in Cary in case anyone is interested.

In short, they follow three kids (ages 11 - 13) and their families for a year on the WKA circuit.

I was curious about it. Is it all NASCAR style or do they run road courses also?

It's all NASCAR style - oval track only. But they did a really good job of making it very interesting and giving plenty of background info on the families, sacrifice, cost, etc. One father said he had $5k per race invested. Two of the kids were from NC and one was from MI. Amazing how young they start thinking about sponsors and how best to present themselves. The MI kid was like a 30 yr old in a 12 yr old body.

Looks like you caught it on its last night.

I'm not sure what I'm driving.
Maybe an ITR in DS.
Or half-assed STX prepped 330.
