Chad and Tammi Williams: Race Cars and Helicopters

Bottom line... If it goes fast, we like it!

If you know us, you know we like racing. It's just the way it is. It's in our blood.

My dad and uncles raced my entire childhood. When my brother and sister were old enough, they raced too. Chad and I met at the race track. My dad and uncle owned a race track for a while. So basically, for the first two decades of my life, I spend most of them either at race tracks, driving to and from race tracks or watching "the guys" work on race cars. And for over 30 years now my dad and uncle have operated a business that makes motorhomes and race car trailers.

I feel most at home when the roar of the engines are too loud for you to think, the dust is flying and all eyes are on that checkered flag. Perhaps it's not the most feminine thing to enjoy, but I make no apology's. In our family, racing was what kept us together. We were all there, all the time. You always hear "The family that plays together, stays together." Well, racing is how we played!

This weekend, I had the privilege to spend a few days at the race track with my Dad, Cody, my uncle Todd and cousin Kyel. It was AWESOME!!

Since my Dad and Todd were doing business with some of the drivers, Cody and Kyel were able to meet some of the drivers, get autographs and t-shirts, and just hang out.

The guys also signed up for a helicopter ride. They loved it!! Grandpa and Cody went and then Todd and Kyel. All smiles when they were done!

These are the things that memories are made from!!
