LB First Lady Nancy Foster emails:
Our Mayor loves cars and enjoys speed! Yesterday [Saturday] he was able to enjoy the real deal riding in a Formula One car with Andrew, a fantastic driver.
Mayor Bob now has a real appreciation for what these drivers do behind the wheel of a car going 200 miles an hour.
It was thrilling and he enjoyed every moment except for his head getting tossed around a little. Being tucked into that compartment in the back is a little tight but when there's will there's a way.
It was a joy ride to remember for Mayor Bob...and I know I will be hearing about it for some time to come!
