Nascar 2009

Durnit, I wanted to watch that, because I probably know some of the soldiers who were on the teams as brakemen!

You have another chance, next Sunday at 2pm.


It was announced today Gillette Evernham is now Richard Petty Morotosports. Good to see the Petty name still in the sport....but I don't like Reed Sorenson driving the #43. I would rather see any of the other drivers at RPM in that car (Kasey, Elliot or even AJ). Nothing against Reed, really, I just don't feel like he has earned it.


And, I am going to have to break my own personal, anybody but Hendrick rule. Gosh it pains me, but Tony Stewart will be running the #80 for Hendrick in the Nationide race at Daytona and I'll have to root for him! But the Nationwide program is really Jr. Motorsports, right?

Looks like I'll just tune in for the 15th race and see who is in what. Can't keep up with all the car/owner/sponser hopping.

I'm sure Kasey couldn't be in the #43 because of the Bud sponsorship. I'm actually surprised that he'll actually be driving a beer car under the Richard Petty name.

Saw in the Sunday paper that some tracks are lowering the prices on tickets and some drivers are selling deals- One Auto Club track promo is a 148 dollar ticket-I wasn't paying attention to the commercial-where 48 dollars goes to a charity that the driver chose.

Interesting.

I have seen that at several track. MIS, Indy and Atlanta have advertised lower prices on tickets.

$148 for California? I think last year I paid $60, for the same basic seat that costs me $95 at MIS. Maybe it is a "premium" seat, or includes a pit pass?

It is a package!

I was listening with half an ear. They are also selling some kind of soda co. sponsored seats at a discount. I think they are the first 5-10 rows in something called the "Pepsi Zone"?

LOL,

I just could look for the speedway site and get the facts straight?

Well, Nashville Superspeedway hasn't given any discount on their season pass packages. They are $50 cheaper than last year, but that's because we lost the IRL race. They are saying that they will have some special announcement in February to make the deal sweeter, but I'm not holding my breath. I really like the track and that it is so close to home, but I don't forsee me going to races this year.
