Where is the gate you are speaking of X-Treme? I am unaware of a gate between the eagle river staging area and the Gundy Cabin unless Forestries have installed something new on the Huestess Forest loop shortly after you leave the staging area headed west...
Harvick placed second in 13 races this season.... new era record. Last one to hold that record was Bobby Allison in 1972.
18 was the last car I wanted to see win but wow what a season for that team - really quite impressive.
Harvick just went over to get his picture taken with the 24 car on its last run - very cool. Danica wearing a 24 hat. Tons of respect being shown for Jeff today! He's been on the track since I got into Nascar in the late nineties - will be strange when he's not there next season.
A bit harsh perhaps... I'm just not a Logano fan at all!
On the brightside though, a buddy of mine is at Homestead and says the weather is looking good for today!
I really want Harvick to be repeat Champion, kinda hope Truex could pull pull it off, and feel that Gordon will be retiring with a Championship. Logano may win the race however... and whine more about the Kenseth incident!
So next Sunday at Homestead it's between Jeff, Kyle, Kevin and Marty! Should be an exciting race... 3 Chevies and a Toyota. Predictions??? I think Harvick will repeat as Champion but it would be cool for Jeff to go out on top. Truex as Champ would also be totally huge for a single car team....
Crazy! Seems like the season just started a couple months ago. Buddies are going to Phoenix again but I'm back in trade school so can't make the trip. Oh well, maybe make the spring race. Should be a good race tomorrow with lotsa rubbing and 'GET THE F**K OUTTA MY WAY' antics.
