Well nothing official but I did ask for a job several times. LOL. There was this guy that stopped by my work whose company is a sponsor of the Woods Bros./JTG Racing. He hooked myself & 3 guys from with Hot Passes. We toured the garages and watched the cars pass thru tech, then we ate lunch at the crew motorhome (had steak & chicken yum yum) then watched teh race from pit road. At one point, one of our guys stepped up on pit wall and snapped pics of teh pit crew during a 4 tire change. Only got 8-9 shots before they were done and heading back over the wall. It was an awesome expirience. The guy called us today and asked if we were treated alright. We told him we planned on attending again next year but the stands would be a big let down and he told us that if his company continued with NEXTEL Cup next year he might be able to work something out again. :wink:
