So we didn’t drive to Milwaukee just to put miles on the Cayenne, not that that would be a bad thing. We came for our one and only race of the season. It had an oddly compressed schedule, with only one practice late yesterday, another this morning and qualifying only a few hours before the actual race.
So after picking up our credentials yesterday afternoon and hanging around with nothing much going on, we decided to go see a movie. We followed that up with a spectacular dinner at Fleming’s. I had a Kobe beef NY strip that was seriously the best steak I have ever eaten. Probably the most expensive as well. Totally worth it.
Which is good, because that steak was the highlight of the weekend. I hate to feel like I’m getting jaded, but the whole race weekend experience felt like a bust. Maybe I’m too stressed out about the whole house thing, maybe 20 years of attending races and seeing dozens of podium finishes makes a weekend where we don’t do well disappointing. At least the food and the weather was good.
