Join us this weekend for some racing on hallowed ground.
God bless our troops, families and nation.

Thank you for your service.
It will NEVER be Leffler!!
Now, if DEI buys out Matts contract with Roush and Roush has to buy out Jamie's, he's just about exchanged money. No loss no gain. Depending on what they're making of course. :)
John Andretti in the truck race tonight in the #15.
They'are about to fire em up.
I'll be in and out for a while.
Ok, weather's looking good for now. Here and there!!
Waltrip in the booth tonight.
First wreck
07
38
29
38 squeezed the 07 into the wall. Schrader was behind this and made it through as did Mike Wallace in DW's truck.
No practice and picks are near deadline!
What ta do?
I know, I'm just going with the guys who usually do well here. Haven't a clue because of the new spoiler/gear stuff.
Andretti's smokin a tire in the truck race. He hit the wall now again. Caution. Darn
That's the pits for an Andretti to wreck here. And, the 15 truck is 4th in owner points.
They have seven different drivers scheduled for that truck this year.
This IRP track looks like fun. There's a place along the track where there is grass and you can sit there in your lawn chair.
Spinner 04 Hamilton - didn't wreck - caution out anyway.
80 to go and they're all sliding around. Do you think they make green flag stops for wreck before then?
Last night (before today's rumors that it is someone already on a team) I suggested maybe Ward Burton. That was stupid. The last I heard he and Junior hated each other.
Five to go.
The 46 of Dennis Setzer takes the checkers!
Bo-ring. As I said a few weeks ago, I like side-by-side racing. You can keep these single-file/too-difficult-to-pass tracks, regardless if they are road courses or ovals. I'll watch something else.
I liked what I got to see of the race. I think the short tracks are more fun, this just needs a little more banking. ;)
Heat buckles track at Dover, will be fixed by Sept. races: The summer heat wave that has gripped Delaware and the Mid-Atlantic region the past couple of weeks has caused a small portion of Dover International Speedway's concrete backstretch to buckle. Denis McGlynn, president and CEO of the track, said Friday he does not expect it to be a major issue and anticipates the MBNA-sponsored NASCAR weekend from Sept. 23-25 to go on as scheduled. "We've put a call in to NASCAR and let them know of the issue," McGlynn said. "It's something that we'll probably have fixed in just a few days." Workers at the high-banked, one-mile track have installed temporary sprinklers on the frontstretch in an effort to cool the track down and avoid the buckling issue that has popped up on the backstretch.
Thanks Jayski & Delaware News Journal
I am gone until this afternoon. Bummer, with so much NASCAR stuff going on this morning.
I will post updates. Looks like someone wrecked in practice. Based on last lap times it could have been Boris or Newman or ??, hard to tell.
Hope you'll be back for practice. Before they stopped, Truex was 4th!!
