Looks like this one may not be run today because of all this cursed rain. I was looking forward to seeing if Danica could stay off the wall LOL. The drivers must be frustrated as hell, and those trailers they are in probably get to seeming pretty damn tight and stifling in the rain.

Oh well, go 24 and hopefully it will be ran today, otherwise I ( Read more... )

This week starts the TNT / ESPN broadcasts of the Sprint Cup, and it looks like only 3 of the remaining 23 races are going to be on ABC. Oh well, might be lucky enough to hear some racing over the radio I guess. Anyhow, kind of rooting for Carl Edwards to end Jimmie's streak of 5 straight titles, other than that... go 24.

Fell asleep on the sofa and just woke with well over half the race done. Oh well, Jeff Gordon is in second trailing Kurt Busch, so I like that #24 is in contention. Looks like Tony Stewart also has a solid car. Looking forward to about 100 laps of racing that is left. Go Big Daddy Gordon.

Well, it is that one time a year I hear Jim Nabors sing, so, it must be Indy 500 and Coca-Cola 600 day. Indy is the only race in that circuit that I watch. I am rooting for Danica Patrick just to infuriate a knuckle draggin' friend of mine who does not think females should be in racing.

As for the race that really counts, the one at Charlotte. With ( Read more... )

Looks like this week and the next two races and most of my Sprint Cup season is over. Oh well. I have my schedule cleared as well as my sofa, so I am ready.

Jimmie has another pole at a track he is pretty good at.

Kevin and Kyle want to kill each other. Cool, just do not take out anyone else.

At this rate #24 will not make the Chase. Maybe that would ( Read more... )

After a week with no Sprint Cup racin' I somehow assumed this week's race was on Sunday (You know what they say about "assume"). Anyhow, this week I have no political correctness... I am rooting for #24 above all. Jeff only needs two more wins to be #3 all time... and I suspect that if he does not get it this year... he never will (and he has GOT ( Read more... )

I wonder if this will be the race where this two-car push racing will cause the big one ? It just seems like a recipe for putting someone in the hospital. I know Junior sounded like he was about to mess his Underoos in the pre-race interview.

I am pulling for Carl Edwards today, but, of course would love to see Jeff Gordon get one more of the couple ( Read more... )

With McMurray, Newman, Kahne, & Logano out front to start I wonder if we will get someone new in the winner's circle today ? Glad the race is on early here as I still have a chore or two to do, but I got my sofa-surfin' clothes on and I am ready for racin'.

Hard to believe that was only 400 miles, as it seemed to take forever, but, that last few laps made up for it. Jimmie did as well as he was predicted to and almost won it. That "nudging" at the end seemed like the kind of racing that had been missing all day. Whew, Harvick really earned that one.

It sounds like tires are going to be the issue. Goodyear is having a hard time finding something that will work, and when they get these other tires in the teams will have a lot less practice time on them than the want. Oh well.... more fun to watch.

I have not seen the TV schedule, but, once they get to that part of the season when it leaves ( Read more... )
