Same here Joe! My dad was all right about the tickets though. He got me out of a alot of them becuase I was from a a small town... 
Although the other thing I'm worried about is that I'm setting him up for some unreasonable expectations as far as how he enjoys motorsports. I'm 6'2" and 260# and I don't fit on or in a lot of the stuff that I grew up enjoying (sport bikes, formula cars, karts etc.) and my boy is likely to be siginficantly bigger than me based on his growth charts and the size of my father in law... So, ultimately even if he got into motorsports, there's a limited type of vehicle he'll get to race and to be honest, he'll probably be at a disadvantage from a minimum weight requirement.
Which is why I hope I can get him to play baseball or wrestle!
My daughter says she wants to be a princess when she grows up, so I don't think I've got much to worry about there!
