As this goes live on Monday February 25 I will be 30,000 feet above the Atlantic, returning from the NASCAR race at California Speedway. As you can imagine, I am more exited than a six-year-old child before Christmas.
As someone who has never been to the U.S. of A., let alone a NASCAR race before I’ll hopefully be able to tell you all about it from an ‘outsider’s point of view’. My aim is to find out whether Toyota has been embraced by the fans and what impact they have had on the die-hard American supporters and teams.
Hopefully I’ll make it through LA customs and I’ll let you all know how it goes on Tuesday February 26 when I get back…
