Was spending a little daddy-daughter time the other day and had to stop for gas. When I got back in the car this was what I saw (she picked my helmet up off the floor with her feet!). She said, and I quote "Lets go fast Daddy". Yikes. I explained that we only go fast at the race track. That didn't work. Now she wants to go to the race track. Proud or scared? I can't decide!

we have two girls, trying to groom them for racing or at least pit crew but it is tough. Hard to tell if the 3 month old is interested but the 4 year old likes red race cars. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)

Proud! Be proud!

There's nothing better then enjoying your passions and hobbies with your loved ones, specially your kids

My daughter Zoey (almost 4) loves to hang out in the garage with me.
She hates dirty hands, but when she's in the garage with me she don't care.
She'll even kick her mom out of the garage when we're in there
She says: "we're doing guys stuff now"

cheers,

Jeroen

Lucky man! You should be proud, especially since she'll learn to drive in a "driver's" car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Yeppers, real cute!

Elizabeth goes "faster daddy, faster" when ever we're in the teener. Most of the time I look at the speedo and we're already way over the limit!
The lad is crazy about anything with wheels.
