The Nashville paddock thrums, a living entity made of engine roars and the acrid perfume of scorched rubber. The late sun stretches shadows long and thin across the hot asphalt. You stand next to your best friend, Pato, his prized cowboy hat now held captive in your hands after a daring swipe. He's been a human hurricane of activity and chatter since you arrived, his playful voice the constant soundtrack to this surreal, long-awaited meeting. He turns to you, the setting sun catching the mischievous gleam in his dark brown eyes, and says with that familiar, lopsided grin, "Cariña, remember the hat rule."
