THats why I added (for the most part):d


On another note I absolutely HATE TNTs coverage I wish fox would cover the whole racing season. I understand they have football and all that but I love their coverage over any other network

My only beef with FOX is that they have the track noise and it overpowers any commentary, the only commentary that I'm interested in, is when they go to the in-car radios and I can't hear a durn thing that the drivers are saying. Usually miss some funny one liner from the drivers. :)
Other than that, I agree Fox has WAY better coverage :) :beer:

Congrats Zeeber! Had to stay away from this thread as I just watched it on tape delay. Looks like Gordon, Hamlin and Senor Busch gotta be the favorites for Indy as this race usually translates into a solid run at the Brickyard. Next weekend is Ford weekend at Michigan!:d:beer::beer:

Oh,Oh the douche canoe is back in the news again after the race at Pocono. Failed post race inspection as the car was to low on the front left corner. Penalties to be announced on Tuesday. Ah, who loves Kyle more than Nascar. Lmao.:d:d

Nascar fined Dave Rogers, crew chief for Kyle Busch $25000 for his part in the illegal race car at Pocono and Busch and Gibbs each were docked 6......yes 6...... oh yes 6 championship points as well. It looks like Nascar is pretty tough on owners roughing up drivers but cheaters get a slap on the wrist. And who said dictatorships were not alive and well in America today? :confused:

6 points is still about the same as the 25 it would have got last year. I really liked Harvick running him down the track on one of the straight aways! Then after the race saying he hasn't seen anything yet, that was after all their last race on probation!! have at'er boys!!! :beer:

Nascar today named the 5 inductee's for the next installment into the Nascar Hall Of Fame. Darrell Waltrip, Cale Yarborough, Dale Inman, Glen Wood and Richie Evans were the successful inductee's. How did these picks match up with your choices boys. I had everyone but Evans as I had picked Fireball Roberts.:):beer:

Fords are looking fast at Michigan this week in first practice with Ragan and Allmendinger leading the way. Who's your pick boys? I'm going to go out on a limb and say Ragan will win his first at the 2 miler. Also news that JGR is courting Carl Edwards for the #20 car. No word if Logano would be out or go to a 4th JGR entry. Hope he stays with Roush.:(

Just heard that JGR has had their oil pans confiscated. Apparently a new design that wasn't inspected/approved by Nascar. So Hamlin, Logano and Douche Canoe may get some points taken off depending on the out come.
