NST @ XDC Round 5, Texas Motor Speedway; Photo Coverage!
When we first got word of the XDC national tour almost a year ago, we were all excited to see a Texas date. We’re very accustomed to traveling the country for national events and are used to thousands of miles of travel per year, but we won’t lie, we felt we were overdue for a national event date in our backyard. OK, so it wasn’t in the greatest city in the Lonestar State (HOUSTON) but it would do! We were stoked!!!
As the NST staff rolled into Dallas Friday morning, we were greeted with massive rain clouds. This would not be good. The weather finally started to clear up a bit Saturday afternoon, and the competition rounds provided some great driving and a few surprizes.
OK, enough reading… you want photos, don’t you? Follow along here in chronological order.
