Robin :p
before I forget......
The Darrel Waltrip/Toyota Truck commercial was way too funny...
I have always wanted to do that to my neighbor's lawn.

WOO HOO GO JEFF GORDON
How true.....Quote:
Tute...
You can't post Jeff Gordon stuff on this thread.;)
Don't worry about Mark Martin's dismal showing this past weekend.....I made up for it on the freeway this morning...:eek: :cool:
Oh, my mom would really love that picture! She is such a big Dale Earnhardt fan.Quote:

Yay! Matt Kenseth!
I'm pretty happy this week. Kenseth took the checkered flag and Martin finished 12th which I didn't think was too bad for a beat up car. I have to be honest and say that I had just got off of work and barely saw a bit of the middle of the race and then wound up snoozing away and waking up at the end. Hubby had to fill me in...hehehe
Robin :)
Got home, flipped on the tube just to catch the last lap...:eek:
I taped the race but checked out NASCAR.com this morning and was sickened to see Bobby got caught up in that wreck. :(
Finished 25th.... :(
Just once place ahead of Tony :( After a good start for Joe Gibbs Racing, it wasn't such a great second week :(Quote:

I watched the race last night. Bobby didn't get banged up as badly as I thought, but seemed to have tire problems from then on. I hope next weekend will be better for the both of them.
Did anyone happen to catch Larry King Live last night? His guests were Dale, Jr. and Jeff Gordon. What a nice couple of guys! :cool: I didn't realize they were on until it was half over though.
I didn't know they were on. I would have liked to have seen them.Quote:

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!
who needs NASCAR?????
This past weekend they brought a new kind of racing to Irwindale raceway....It was fast, fun and a screaming hoot!
It's called D1GP- and the Japanese drivers are the absolute best..
A small description?? Take a car and slide it, tires screaming, smoke rising, around a track..
It's part rally, part midget racing...all balance, style, control and just plain crazy.
It's gotta be the most fun I have seen since I left the theater after seeing "Days of Thunder".....
http://www.d1gp.com/
Woo Hoo!!!! Matt Kenseth does it again! 2 wins in a row. Way to go, Matt. Maybe this will start to shut up those critics that said you didn't deserve the championship last year because you only won one race. What an Awesome driver!
Mark Martin finishes fifth. I'm a happy nascar fan today. Now, I just need to see Martin take a few checker flags and I will be delirious :D
Oh, and Kurt Busch finished 9th. Pretty good day for Roush racing!
Robin :)
My sis was 'crying' during the whole race.. (She's a Jr. fan) Bobby got 8th. Not bad. Hoping for a win though! :D
good race....congrats to Kenseth and all the 42 second place finishers....
A 45 minute IMAX Nascar film is due to premiere
this friday!!
http://www.nascar.com/2003/news/head...ax_sutherland/
A good day for Joe Gibbs racing...Tony 3rd and Bobby 8th! Much better then the last race anyway :) ...on to Atlanta!!!
I know it is only three races in, but Kasey Kahne is looking impressive. Definatly an early favorite for rookie of the year
Great race. I was so excited with a 6th place finish for Elliott Sadler # 38 (Go team M&M's). He moved up in the points standings from 7th to 3rd....now if he can only continue this well.
oh oh oh!!!!
man, we get SPEED this weekend as in SUPER SPEED WAY!!
Go #6!!
lol,
I fell asleep and didn't see the end of the race....
Congrats #8 and the fans....
and what was up with the Truck race on Saturday??
what a finish....
Go Toyota!:D
4 races complete and yet I stillahven't gotten to watch one :( TOny done good though...7th place, and 2nd in points! Maybe I should stay away from the TV!!
SO....
Who won?
Kurt Busch :(
Tony had another bad day...got a penelty for something not sure what.
How bout the after race events with Kenseth and McMurry....

He he...I was sorta hoping a few punches wouldbe throw...then maybe a hockey game would break out!!!Quote:

Tony was penalized for spinning scott wimmer. Hopefully McMurray will get some points stripped for spinning Kenseth AFTER the race, and maybe, just maybe, NASCAR will penalize Jr the two laps the tire change would have cost him if he had pitted under green instead of spinning himself out on the track and causing a caution. (But as a long time Mark Martin fan I'm not holding my breath until NASCAR is consistent applying the rulebook)
Thanks for explaining why Tony was penalized.
I agree something should happen to McMurry. When Tony spun Jeff gordan on Pit road after a race two years ago he was placed on probation and evntually had to go to anger management classes (course he did a few other things too), but still, something should be done.
I Also think Jr's move was dirty...but that is sorta the Earnhardt way!
The fruit don't fall far from the tree...;)Quote:

Subtracting points is a good idea..I can't remember it happening before.
They fined Martin 45 points and $50,000 for havig a carbeurator spacer that was technically illegal but functionally legal handing Earnhardt the championship in 91 or 92.
They fined Martin 25 points 2 years ago for having a spring in his car that was functionally legal but technically illegal.
They fined Stewart and put him on probation for spinning gordon 3 years ago.
BUT........
Jr has a car that is 1/4" too low on an aero track and they just fine him and let him keep the win........is there a trend here?
Since this is where the Nascar freaks hang out, I have a question for you all. ;)
Besides Tony Stewart, which Nascar driver is from Indiana? And what are his "colors?" As an example, I would say Tony Stewarts "colors" were orange because of the Home Depot thing.
Just curious......;) :p :D

Of course, the France Family has to keep the scnadals down to a minimum.
"Cheating is o.k., until you get caught...."
(And the JR. wins at daytona seemed to be a little gratuitous....)
Thanks for the info! ;)

NASCAR FREAKS???
Just because we practice drafting on 18 wheelers doesn't make us FREAKS!;)
Ryan Newman was born in South Bend but lives in SC..
The car...
http://www.ryan12newman.com/carspecs.htm
Freaks??? huh!:D
Ok, ok, Nascar "fanatics." Is that better? ;)
Thanks, Ryan Newman it is! Ok, now for the rest of the story, which you guys probably don't care about anyway....
On Friday we toured the American Coach factory where our motorhome was made in Decatur, IN. The highest end coach they offer is a Heritage - 45' long, tag axle, extremely high end components throughout, new "average" ones go for around $700,000.00. Needless to say they don't make too many of these, and Terry drools profusely everytime he sees one. Well, there was one on the line as we toured the factory. It was almost done and was in the final buffing stage in the paint booth. The reason I asked the "colors" of the driver is because this coach was basically white with some blue and black graphics. When I saw Ryan Newman's car, I knew immediately it was his! Oh, and the only thing the tour guide would tell us is it belonged to "an Indiana Nascar driver."
So there you go. Ryan Newman hangs out in an American Heritage while he's at the track - cool! :) Maybe he'll want to get rid of it in about 5 years and Terry can buy it for a measly $300,000.00! :eek: :eek: NOT!!! ;) :D
Thanks for the info and sorry for the extended explanation....:)

Ryan Newman was a guess...........:eek:
300,000k and all the change in the seat cushions!!
:D
Well someone had mentioned Jeff Gordon because I guess he was born somewhere else but now lives in Indiana? And I thought he might be it because he does have blue on his car too (I think), but when I saw Ryan Newman's car, I knew it was him. The paint scheme is as similar as you can get transferrring from a 12' or so car to a 45' motorhome. It was even the same shade of blue! :DQuote:

I laughed, I thought about the paint job HIS motorhome would have..:eek:
