This one is for the 👰♀️ wives…
Trust me when I say, I KNOW. I know ALL the emotions. ❤️
The heart racing. The shaking hands. Holding back the tears. Standing there trying to look calm while silently praying, “God, please just give him a safe pass and bring him back to me.” 🙏
While everyone else is watching the tree, waiting to see that WIN light come on, we’re watching the person we love climb into a car that’s about to go 200+ MPH.
Yes, we want that win light too. 🏁 But before the win, before the numbers on the board, before anything else—we just want to see him slow down safely and come back around.
Unless you’ve stood behind that car watching your husband chase his dream down the track, it’s hard to explain that feeling.
So to all the racing wives who smile through the nerves, hold back the tears, and whisper a prayer before every pass…
I see you. I feel you. I AM you. ❤️🙏🏁
The win light is beautiful—but seeing him come back safely will always be the biggest win.
There’s something different about standing behind that car, watching your husband chase his dreams at 200 MPH. ❤️🏁
Most people see the race—the speed, the power, and the finish line. But as his wife, I see everything behind it: the long nights, the sacrifices, the hard work, the setbacks, and the determination it took to get here.
Every time Derrick pulls into those beams, my heart is full of pride, nerves, and a whole lot of prayer. 🙏❤️
I’ll keep standing behind him, believing in him, praying over him, and watching him chase that dream—one pass at a time.
Because sometimes loving a racer means watching the person you love fly down a track at 200 MPH and trusting God to bring him safely back to you. 🏁❤️
