Nascar 2008

Jimmie Johnson and Mikey. Interesting. I'm guessing Mikey has no jet fuel in the engine this year. hehe Hope the Duals go well! I'll be watching!

[Cincy'sMom]

I was glad to see Mikey run well. He's come a long way since last year. I was really hopinghe would hold it though, and knock Jimmie off the pole.

I have to go to a Sales Meeting this week Tues-Thurs. We are supposed to get done at noon on Thursday. From what I'm hearing no one is planning on going to work after that (we will be in Detroit an hour from the office). My plan is to be in front of the TV at home by 2 pm. Hopefully everyone won't change their mind and head to the office, cause I REALLY want to be able to watch the races!

*Edit* Looks like Jimmie got it.

Working weekends sucks! I caught the first hour of qualifying before I had to leave. Who got the pole?

We've got "Twins" in Gnneral ... TWO Threads titled "Nascar 2008".

Here's what's in the "other" Nascar 2008 thread >>>

Don't forget race fans; Sunday (THE 17TH) is the Daytona 500!!!!!

ZOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!

[Moesha]

I saw that.
Before the 500 on Sunday...we have the Gatorade Duel TODAY!

Trackpass here I come! Since I had season tickets to the Nashville Speedway and have my scanner with me there, I've found that I almost can't stand to watch a race without listening to team communications. I just feel like I'm missing something. Last season I bought Sirius radio for that reason and DirecTv's HotPass. Couldn't stand either one of them. Mostly because I couldn't get Kasey's information I guess. Sirius was better than HotPass. That drove me crazy. Those commentators were terrible! I'm sticking with Trackpass this season. Although I do still have the Sirius radio at least for a few more weeks to see if their NASCAR coverage in general improves. If the cars are on the track, I want to know what is going on! I can't stand all the call-in talk shows that rehash the same old speculation all the time.

Just made it home after 3 days at our International Sales Meeting. I suppose if I was a dedicated employee I would have headed to the office for a few hours, but being a dedicated NASCAR fan, I'm logging in from home to sort through emails, so I can do it in front of my TV. Time to go racing!!!

[Moesha]

I just got home too! Let's go racin' boys! And no, I didn't try to sound like DW.

[Cincy'sMom]

Junior again, wow!! Could be a fun year for Junior nation.

But better news...Kenny made the show!!! Who-hoo!!! Go Herm!!

[Moesha]

Amazing that Brian Vickers made it after the start he had. I'm sad for Bill Elliott and the Woods. I was listening to their team communications. Bill has always been my favorite.

[Cincy'sMom]

Yeah, I didn't think Brian had a shot after he went spinning. And I would have liked to see Bill get in for the history and tradition of the Wood brothers.

Kenny Schrader is in a transfer spot as of now. Sure hope he can hold on! And I hope David Ruetiman can get up and get in on time so Boris Said makes it in.

[Cincy'sMom]

Go Gibbs Boys! Nice Teamwork!! (Now remember that for Sunday!)

[Moesha]

HAHA
I feel bad for all of the guys that have to go home. There's alot of sad stories for guys that don't get to race. It's nice for the guys that got in though. I hope Sunday's race is a safe one.

Track Bar Adjustment-

Having to go to the next beer wagon when the one outside your section runs out of suds.

And one Daytona race down. That was a wreckfest for awhile.

[Cincy'sMom]

Wrestfest for sure!! Poor PJ Jones coming through the field on fire! Looked pretty spectacular, but he was fine. They calmed down and raced a good race.

20 car is looking good for the Nationwide series today. What qualifying run!! Go Smoke!
