How did we get to May already?  Wow. 

What that means here in Bristol is our Street Fights are underway at Thunder Valley Dragway;  The inaugural Thunder Valley Fly & Wine is May 3-4; the Ford NHRA Thunder Valley Nationals are next month over Father’s Day weekend; Global Rally Cross/Monster Truck Madness is in July; and then we have the August IRWIN Tools Night Race. 

One of my favorite consumer marketing guys is Seth Godin.  He writes a daily blog, and it's usually pretty good for me. When you get some time, you should visit (and subscribe to) Seth's blog.  

What is going to happen at Bristol next week?

I don’t know. But, I do know. Please allow me to explain.

CHANGE

So I want to make this edition of That’s Just Bristol blog relevant and timely.  What I keep coming back to is the word and concept of "change." Definitely relevant.  Definitely timely in the world of Bristol.

Wow…  Where in the world did 2011 go?  I mean, I know I’m getting old and time moves quickly, but 2011 was a mere blink of the eye for me. Truthfully, it was that way for a lot of us here at Bristol Motor Speedway and Bristol Dragway.

I just did a web search for the term “Boys Have At It.”  In less than a second, I got 432,000 results (including the above popular YouTube video).  No term in recent NASCAR history has created more conversation and opinion than these four simple words.  If you haven’t heard the term, you’re either not a race fan, or you’ve been in some area of the world where internet, television and radio don’t exist.
