Thanks for this thread. Our household has enjoyed all of the racing, to date, in all three NASCAR series. We especially enjoyed Keselowski’s win in Vegas, yesterday. Smart racing (and overcoming a self-inflicted speeding penalty on pit row). Logano is fast and should end up in victory lane before the first 26 races are done. Speaking of Logano, delighted to see Kenseth having trouble finishing well in the first three cup races. His history of bad sportsmanship last year (purposely taking out Logano) and attacking Keselowski from behind (after a race)is messing up his “karma.” Or he is simply reaping his just desserts. He is a talented wheelman, but a poor competitor, in my view. And Dale Jr. will add another victory or two to his statistics this year. Lots of driver and crew chief talent in the field, including the rookies.
Pilot did right with precautionary landing. The “big one” was an approach the pilot should have waved off...forcing it in gets more people killed than not. 2004 was Beech King Air. This was Embraer 145...
OK this was a bigger jet.

Thanks
Bump for the team of Bender & Bender racing...
Got rain?
Did you hear that KyBu won the Busch Rave a few minutes ago?
Nuh-uh. Didn’t hear. Kyle could win tomorrow and it’d be alright with me but I’d rather a fresh young newbie got the flag. Lot more speed parity btn the different manufacturers then I thought there’d be. Speaking of hearing why didn’t you say you got 300 points last week? Cool weather must be following NASCAR around. Mid 60’s for the race. Upper 80’s later in the week. Rain snow mix here all day but 2 feet of snow 1500 feet higher. Got me peas planted but I dressed like an Eskimo to do it. This years already flying. Easter in 2 weeks and Springing fwd tonight.
I hope to do 318 points tomorrow and the garden is too wet to plow but to shallow to swim...
Watching qualifying, when the Jimmy Johnson wreck happened, my first thought, after it was clear the tire was not the cause, was the steering wheel came off.
Johnson’s interview convinced me even more because it was so vague. Wasn’t there something many years ago involving Ricky Craven and the steering wheel coming off? Or was that Steve Park?
I got 15 Q points but so did 15 others including you...
I’ll take 15 Q points. I remember half my field; it’s always fun to find out after the race exactly who I picked to be active. Hit early service this morning and the Beauty Rest is calling. Will watch the race this evening. I think it’ll be a good one. I don’t recall any driver being mad at another this year. Yet. Maybe this will be the day. Oh, I running:
Kyle
Carl

2 4 10 14 but y’all knew that
FReeper League scores are posted and everyone is a winner
No, didn’t know. Seriously couldn’t remember my other B or C driver. Incredibly high scores by the FR league. Kinda boring race but again a great finish. Looked like a good crowd & kudos to Harvick & team.
I’m writing Fox Sports. To darn many announcers.

Man I’m looking for NASCAR news so I can post something relevant but NACAR’S site isn’t the best...I did find this on ESPN - top fantasy picks for California - but don’t tell anyone else.
