Re: NASCAR thread
Man, adding the truck race to the mix really shows how folks like to beat up on Mark Martin at the end of a race. I think they rely on his clean driving to pull that stuff off. Try that with a Big E, Allison, Jr Johnson, or worst of all Cale. I'm not saying it's right but you had to know if you're behind them, you need to settle for second or plan on a visit to the wall. :LAUGH:

Re: NASCAR thread
I agree. I think Kenseth will take it today also. I missed the Busch and Truck race this weekend though.

I've been to Atlanta, Chicago, and Bristol. If you ever get a chance to go to Bristol, don't pass it up. That has got to be the best race I ever went to. Not a bad seat in the house. I would love to go to the 500 though. It is much different seeing them in person as you stated. Did you get the the little radios to listen to the drivers?

Re: NASCAR thread
I have been to Martinsville, Richmond, Charlotte (Lowes) and Daytona.
Handsdown Lowes Motor Speedway is the best above the rest.

Re: NASCAR thread
I'm glad Kenseth won because I had 7 for my NASCAR pool so that means I won some money.:HOPPY:

Re: NASCAR thread
Glad to see Matt sweep the weekend...and Mark is the points leader now! Wish he was doing it behind the wheel of a Ford, but he's still a class act...

Re: NASCAR thread
I have a feeling Mark will end up behind the wheel all year afterall at this rate. This is weird to say but now I understand why Dale Jarrett fans continue to support him even though he defected to Toyota. Perish the thought, but I may actually have to buy a...gasp...Chevy Army 01 diecast....
BTW, Bristol is by far the greatest track on the planet to see a NASCAR race (especially at night). As gvervoren said, there is not a bad seat in the house (you do have a pit road on both sides), the fans kick butt, and it's loud as hell. I've been to Chicago and Talladega but my Bristol experience totally topped them both from a fan's perspective. I do want to hit Charlotte, Martinsville, and Richmond in my lifetime however.

Re: NASCAR thread
It just sucks now that we have to wait 2 weeks until the next race. I don't understand that. A lot of the drivers complain about the long stretch of races without a weekend off towards the end of the year. But yet they race 2 weeks and have a weekend off in the beginning. Why don't they just move that off weekend in the begining of the year and break up that long stretch of continuous races towards the end of the year. Let's say like right before the chase.

Also Nascar said David R's crash was one of hardest recorded crashes they have had. I guess he was not knocked out but was out of breath.

Re: NASCAR thread
Wife said it was the hardest recorded crash into the safer barrier ever. How do they know that crap. I know it scared me to see him in the car slumped over. Toyota or not!!!!! Oh ya the only car Nascar runs that is built in America.

Re: NASCAR thread
....just a side note: NASCAR is way better on TV. I went to this last race at California Speedway and it was so-so. I don't think that I would ever do it live again. My *** is still sore from the stupid bench. It was way too long and no matter where you sit you can't see the whole race. It would have been cool for 100 laps but not 250. It was supposed to be near 70 so I wore shorts and a T-shirt and it ended up being 54 with a cool wind. I was a little cold and uncomfortable. We also rode the train in which took forever and was not worth the convenience. Some of you may not get what I'm trying to say....in LA you can pay $25 and hop on a train that takes you right to the speedway. The $25 is worth it just in the price of gas and you could concievably drink all day long. However, it took so long to get home that I wish that i had driven. Anyway, there were some very good things at the race too. The concessions were great- good food! The sponsors also had some pretty cool displays.
