New indy car, new noses in F-1.
New engines in Indycar bringing competition back.
Really looking forward to this year!
Let's go racin boys!!!! ;)
I saw him race a sprint car in a World of Outlaw race YEARS ago. I miss those days.....dirt clots being thrown up into the stands.........loud cars..........the accidents.
Taz, you should come to Ohio and go to Eldora with us! It's a great dirt track. Every year Tony Stewart (he owns it) holds the Prelude to the Dream. Kasey is always there along with many other drivers who do it for the fun and to raise money for different foundations.
Richard I'm so stoked about the NASCAR season starting! We've already gotten our tickets to Kentucky, Darlington and of course Eldora:D
That would be so cool! But it's not in the budget. :( I use to go to Hanford, CA to watch the races. I think the Outlaw race we went to was in Calistoga.Quote:

If anything changes I will definitely let you know. :)Quote:

Amy, that is so cool! Vegas is one race I would love to go to! Hope you enjoy it. Wear comfortable shoes, take plenty of sunscreen and don't forget the earplugs!
I don't think it was supposed to be a demolition derby last night, was it??? :eek: That was Jeff's first roof ride I think. Bet he's feeling it today. :p
hopefully somebody will learn how to wreck Kyle properly next week :rolleyes:
You should go sometime...we'll go again I'm sure if you go, Las Vegas isn't too far from us (5ish hrs driving). One of these days I'll convince some PTers to head my way. ;) I'm excited, should be good times. :cool:Quote:

I think I'll skip the race. I wonder if she was allowed to win the pole, just to get people to watch?
Well, at least SHE hasn't tried to run you over!!! ;) :love:Quote:

Richard, did you do a rain dance so the race will be rained out? If so, it's working!!! :D :love:
I think NASCAR needs to change the design on their track dryers.......
Fuel cell, anyone?
Just because I am the luckiest man on the planet does not mean I have any pull with the 'gods of weather'.Quote:

LH,
You figure they can keep fighter aircraft from flaming up?
I wonder if they would mandate the location of the FC pickup, too?:p
Wouldn't the pickup have to be in the pickup?
From the looks of it that tank was just a diamond plate tank like you buy for farm equipment. SHould have been a bladder setup like is on the cars. That's not the first time the safety crew has taken a hit, just the most spectacular.
And....the obligatory bad humor from teh web:
How many Columbians does it take to stop a NASCAR race?
Only Juan.
I'll have to link the article later, but I just saw Ryan Newman is visiting Best Friends in Utah while they are out west this weekend. A camera crew is going along and it will be a story in the pre-race to help bring more awareness to animal rescue. Go Newman!
And other bad joke...what are the odds of htting a jet dryer on the track?
Juan in 42
Here's the link to the article:

Oh - those Juan jokes are soooo baaadddd!!! Love em! :D
I heard about this bad accident on the news. That must have been so scary.

Scary as hell to watch! It's a miracle that no one in the stands was killed. I can't imagine seeing a tire or anything else that was flying off that car, headed in my direction. :eek:Quote:
