I'm glad they've featured Kasey so often also.

I am speculating that Kasey is getting more exposure because "BUD"
is a major sponsor for the race each week. They are probably asking
for him to be one of the drivers on Hotpass. Ok with me.

This week the drivers that will be on hotpass for the race in Martinsville are Mark Martin, Jeff Burton, Carl Edwards and Dale Jr.

I'm not a fan of any of this weeks Hotpass drivers but will probably watch
Carl Edwards since I think he is the best of the lot.

Why does NASCAR bring out the best in people?

I was walking out of my gate when I heard someone yelling at me over the music on my earphones.

I stopped and saw the mailman gesturing to me-when I got the earpiece out he wanted to know who the NASCAR fan was in the house.

Of course he has seen the NASCAR publication, Marlboro/GP ads and the Harvick flag waving on the porch....

We did a little back and forth across the street and got the info on his driver, the kind of beer he drinks (it's not the brand HIS driver is sponsored by) and why he has no particular hatred for the brother of his favorite driver. It was a fun 10 minutes and I now know another NASCAR fan I can yell at when I see them.

I have always found race fans to be very faithful to their guys and always ready to start a conversation and trade a few jabs about the race, season or who crashed who the week before.

I love my NASCAR and the crazy fans, too!

I resemble that remark!

I've had season passes to the races in Nashville for several years. This year with a season pass ticket, they are including admission to the driver's meetings. That would be interesting to attend, but sadly I think I'll have to pass this year.

Hmmm....we had been debating the April Nationwide race. Might give a little more reason to consider it!

Anna, tomorrow morning at 9 am on Espn Classic, Sports Century is about Tony Stewart. I have my DVR set!

Kyle sure can drive...but I still refuse to become a fan. At least one that wears any Kyle gear!

Hey, you just need to come and live with Mark for a while....you'll have to be a fan that wears Kyle gear

Hard to believe I like someone who two years ago I absolutely despised!

I'm really happy that Jeff won Sunday....Mark was just happy Jimmy didn't!!!

I debated if I was going to have to buy something Kyle to wear to the Nationwide race this weekend in Nashville...but I think I'll stick with my Kenny Wallace t-shirt!

You could sit at the back with a straw and spitwads.

I wish Memphis (sister track to N'Ville) would do that. Had season tix for years and the only way I can ever get pics of drivers is by fighting my way to the front of the mosh-pit at the fence during intros, LOL. Nashville is a nice track. I have been there for a motorcycle race, but not NASCAR.

Dirt or street bikes?

I love the smell of castrol!

CM,
I caught some of the TS program, as a kid he looked nothing like he does today. I think it's the cheeks.

whatever bikes these are:
http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y77...007/Bike10.jpg I guess those are considered street bikes, although there is a class for dirtbikes. Just put some racing tires on them and let 'em go! It's cool and strange at the same time

I know I've got pictures from Nashville somewhere, but can't find them

I guess I never put them online.
