It wasn’t that long ago that Charlotte Motor Speedway had the Media Tour this time of year.  It evolved over the years; starting by going to the individual team’s race shops, to being feted by the sponsors of those teams at their shops, to having the teams come to ballrooms at hotels because the Tour had become too big for the teams to handle, having to shut down a part of their shops for half a day.

Some of you may not have experienced this yet, but as you get older, occasionally you’ll find yourself looking around and saying in certain circumstances, ‘man, they keep getting younger and younger’.
