Hi, my name is Kim and I have lived in northern California for most of my life. I was a Navy brat so we moved around a lot as a kid but ended up here 'cause my dad was born and raised in the area.
I am also a mother of a 22 year old (yikes!) man...who is a wonderful person with a wonderful spirit!! I am so fortunate to have my son, Jake...who was given the gift of a second chance at life...I love you dearly Monkey!
Also, I am a NASCAR-aholic. I've been a fan since '91 or so. I originally became a fan because my son was this HUGE Dale Sr fan and well, me being a single mom I wanted to have something in common with him..so, I would watch races with him. At that time he was like six but he would explain things to me and it was fun...Dint take long before I was hooked. We watched races together up until Sr died in '01...he was crushed when that happened...shortly after that he kinda lost interest....(plus it was high school years then and girls were of greater interest!!..hee hee) Anyway, most of my family think I'm nuts because I am pretty well versed in the goings on in the sport and because of my FIERCE loyalty to Dale Jr. In 2004 my new years res was to try to get to at least one different track every year. Last fall it was Richmond, the last race to the chase (how exciting is that?). And I was born in VA so it was fun to go back! In 2005 I went to the Bristol night race in the fall...that was TO MUCH FUN! I also made California Speedway and Infineon that year. I was cool 'cause I got a speedway, a road course, and a short track (at night) all in the same year! Good stuff....good times....goooood times!!!
