Tossed it aside?

Hmmm, that sounds like he really wanted to give everyone a piece.

I think that was the part that bothered me more then the smashing. The way he tossed it to theside was so....I am not sure what the right word is.

Brash?

I don't have any problems with celebrating a win-but that was over the top.

----------------------------------

I think that KB has watched too much wrestling.

I cheap wooden guitar would have flown into a jillion pieces. If you have seen/touched/played an electric guitar you would know it's a solid instrument.

Plus, if you swing it by the neck and try to break the body off, the strings make the heavy broken part a swinging, jagged piece of wood that flies around unpredictably.

Just ask Peter Townshend of the WHO.

MIS weekend coming up!!! Can't wait to spend some timein the Irish Hills!

Ralph is particupating in a charity fund raiser tomorrow, fishing with Ryan Newman and "other NASCAR drivers and personalities" No clue who else may be there but I'll be sitting ansty at work wondering what they are up to!

Saturday morning we are starting our day with a tour of the Garage area. It is right before Truck qualifying, and Sprint cup practice, so I expect to see a lot of tuning up going on on the cars. I did a similar tour last year, on Friday before practice and several of the drivers were wandering around, so I am looking forward to that.

We have pit passes for the weekend, and tickets to both the truck and Cup race. Can't wait!

I don't get it......Some of the articles pubbed on Monday say that Bass wasn't ticked off about it......Now????

Yes! My boy Colin Braun's luck finally turned for the better! 6 truck back in Victory Lane! First win for him, 50th for Jack in the Truck series Now to watch Erik Darnell in the NW series. I know as a Mark Martin fan I'm not obligated to cheer for Roush anymore but Jack's got 2 young'uns in his stable now that show real potential

You can cheer for anyone you want.

Very good race and KB was almost pleasant in the PR interview...Did I say that?

--------------------

I got my NASCAR Scene mag today and in it there was an article about Kyle "El Kabong" Busch and how Bass thought the guitar smash was OK.

Every article I have read has spun it a different way.

Even the NASCAR officials were ambilvalent about it.....

KB, here is a little tip about smashing a guitar..

If you want your little pieces, don't slam it down on it's edge. Slam it flat with the strings facing the ground.

That will take the body off the neck and keep it from springing back to hit you in the face.

There were a few thousand race fans and guitar players that took their KB bobbleheads and smashed them on the ground.

The Les Paul probably showed more resilience.

It was a great race! I am uploading pictures now. Will post a link soon.

Kyle was pleasant? Really? He sure wan't on his radio. We had the Sprint Fan View w/scanner and he was hot thee last 20 laps of the race. Called Norm Benning every name in the book...then calmed now about Norm, and admitted he "screwed" it up. But he was still cussing and swearing up a storm.

Can't wait to go back tomorrow!!!

He was......He even joked about the second place finishes.

Wow! That is good, I guess. Cause I I heard the "f "word on his radio more times today, then I've heard that word in my life I think. I guess that is just the way he talks...even from the drop of the green flag. His truck was good everyone was just in his bleeping way....all the way to the checkered when he told his crew they deserved it, he bleeped it up!

If I did it right, my pictures should be here: http://labsnspots.shutterfly.com/6618

The reason I like JBJ is that he doesn't have the 'typical' race car driver dashing good looks....He reminds me of a school teacher!

Prayers for him.

Thank you Stock Car Jesus.


Any way you can, baby!

[RobiLee]

Boy did I come flying out of my seat....LOL

Love it!


Woo Hoo!! Mark Martin!

[aTailOf2Kitties]

Thank you Stock Car Jesus.

AMEN to that, brother! And another thanks to SCJ for not letting Kyle win at all this weekend

I hope the TV coverage showed the great racing that was going on in the pack...most of the race was pretty boring, if you were watching Jimmie pull away, but, there was some great 3, 4 and 5 wide racing back in the pack.

I was pulling so hard for The Bif at the end...I think I was the only won in our sections of the stands go nuts becuase I was happy when Jimmie ran out of gas. Would have liked to see Greg pull it out, but good to see the Old Man win. Denny 3rd, Tony 7th...not too bad! Wish Ryan had a better day!
