Don't you just love Carl Edwards?!. Another awesome back flip!

What a great race it was today!!! We were right onthe start finsh line, 9 rows up! Got to see the flip up close and personal! I tried to take a video of it, but I'm not sure if I got him or not...and I didn't bring the software to load my pictures from here, so I can't check til I get back to Ohio (the screen on the camera makes movies too small to get good detail!)

Don't know if word is out too much, but it was onthe news here...Kurt Busch got picked up for a DUI last night out by the track! Same guy who does Drink Responsible commericals for Crown Royal!! Go figure!!

Got too much sun today, but had a blast! Can't wait til tomorrow!

OMG..Amy, I'm so jealous that you got to see Carl do his back flip!!! I thought of you when it was gonig on because I knew you said you were sitting at the start/finish line. Looks like you got to see a good Busch race!

Didn't hear that news about Kurt Busch yet. Shame on him!! I hate drinking and driving!

Mr Busch has been charged with reckless driving (running a stop sign, doing 60 in a 45) and was not charged with DUI, but the officer smelled alcohol on his breath. Looks like he's a good fit for the #2. (My favorite Rusty Wallace sign I've ever seen was "My drinking team has a racing problem")

I'm sorry I didn't get the story quite right. What I heard was that they pulled him over, and he was beligerent with the cops so they took him in for a breathalizer. The person relaying the story must have made the assumption that he was charged with DUI.

I'm sorry I didn't get the story quite right. What I heard was that they pulled him over, and he was belligerent with the cops so they took him in for a breathalyzer. The person relaying the story must have made the assumption that he was charged with DUI.

Amy, Mark told me last night that what he read is that they couldn't find a "working" breathalyzer (hmmm, confidence?) so he was only charged with reckless driving.
I never got to see the race (I was working) but it sounds like you had a fantastic time!
I'm sure you'll have even more fun today...looking forward to the videos and pictures when you come back!!!!!

Too bad for KB.....

I immensely dislike the "Sheriff". He's a pompus arse, he's the one that keeps prisoners in tents, makes them wear pink underwear and prison wear and feeds them PB and Js... Jail shouldn't be a picnic, but it's just his "TV" face and his media 'presence' that bugs me....

If you noticed the statement he made on the prerace show-He said something like "No one comes into my town...."

Your town????
=======================

"Sheriff!!! This Kurt Busch called us wimps!!!"

"Settle down Barney.....We'll send him over to Mount Pilot where they do have a working breathalyzer!!!"


They couldn't nail him for DUI so they blamed him for RD....you also have a blood test or a urine test to fall back on..KB had his choice-he chose correctly...
