Thought it was going to be a weekend for the old guys all around....Kenny Schrader had a great run in the ARCA race, but was out of gas with 3 to go. BUt a dominate performance for him until that point....(I guess almost doens't quite count though)

I was watching CMT today and went by CMT. THey have a program that goes to the homes of C&W stars, athletes and such.

Mark Martin is a chump.

His house has a master bathroom that is as big as the place I lived in!

And he is a little 'under the thumb'-his wife has a huge counter for her stuff. His counter is on another wall and smaller!

They also went to the MM museum. WOW, HE really deserves to win a few more races this year!

Dear Stock Car JESUS,

While I love speedway racing, that there restrictor plate may be the work of Satan.

Please take care of those drivers, especially the ones that make the highlight shows by flipping over.

Amen.

Wow, what a race!
I wish that guy crapowsky wouldn't have thrown Carl over like he did.
It's a miracle noone got hurt, especially in the crowd.
The car looked like it could have easily flipped over the barrier.
What a lame way to win....
Glad Jr. got second...

Speechless.

I think this may be more evidence PT prayers work...good job Richard!

Wow! What a finish.

While I hate restrictor plate racing, I hate to think of what kind of wrecks we would be having at both Daytona and Talladega if the speeds were allowed to go up. If Buddy Baker could drive a 200+ lap in 1970 think what kind of speeds they could attain today. That wreck that Carl had on the last lap may have been a real disaster because his car may have cleared the fence. The 7 slightly injured people would have turned into hundreds dead. Nascar knew what they were doing when they mandated the plate in 88.

I was on the phone with my brother while they were watching this (previously recorded). So I had to go online and see for myself this Carl Edwards accident. That was crazy, and I am very glad nobody was seriously injured.
No back flips (outside of the car) for Carl though.

**kokopup** · 04-27-2009, 03:06 PM

That was his first flip in the car.

RIP David Poole....The Morning Drive won't be the same.

NASCAR won't be the same without him. He definitely had opinions and made sure that they were known.

I wish I hadn't given my Sirius radio to my sister-in-law. I would like to hear the tribute show tomorrow. The morning drive was one of the NASCAR talk shows that I liked, especially after the addition of Mike Bagley.
