After the triathlon the In it to Win it Girls headed over to the Tony Stewart sign to get a picture for that challenge. Everyone driving by hooted and hollered for them as they stood by the sign. Jeff Gordon even came by and offered to let them get a picture with him but they politely declined. They new that they must stay focused on the final prize, so they headed on their way. 
They decided that since the Landfill was close by, they would head over to the Recycle Sign made of grass. Here they received some unexpected fun. After being under the Tony Stewart sign, they were all feeling ready for a spin! Missi got the bright idea of laying on their sides and rolling down the hill. Now that sounds like fun right? You would think so and it was . . . but it was also down right dangerous! It has been close to 100 degrees all week. As a result, the grass is brittle and nearly dead. Erin's husband, Chris, tried to warn the girls that they should maybe leave the spinning to Tony, but to no avail! And as soon as they headed off down the hill, they knew they were in trouble. Each time they turned it felt like needles poking into their skin. And unfortunately, no one had thought about how they would have to wait for the momentum to stop before they would quit rolling! Mandi was thoroughly enjoying herself and laughing so hard, she thought she might have an accident! And as they finally slowed down, the world kept spinning for Missi and Erin. They both said that this activity should be illegal, as they felt high as a kite as they neared the bottom. In fact, Missi felt so disoriented that she actually lost her lunch before she finally returned to normal. All three girls were left with cuts and abrasions all over their skin from the grass, they were covered in a strange rash, AND a great amount of itching!!
