Nice Photo...

I had bookmarked the site for the BMS Web cam showing the rebuild the past few months.

Yep, the race course has that new concrete smell.

Bookmarks are often useful. Did you watch any of it?

[tubebender]

I’m glad you asked...

I hope the weather is a little more cooperative this weekend.

It’s watching this race in 1999 (while doing laundry) that I first became a NASCAR fan. That was the race that Dale E bumped Rusty Wallace I believe. I liked that Gordon said he just trying to win the races and he doesn’t care about the point standings.

[fkabuckeyesrule]

I’ve heard that there was once thoughts that maybe Tennessee would play Virginia Tech at Bristol. That would be quite a site.

Gordon said he just trying to win the races and he doesn’t care about the point standings.

That's why they call him champion.

I hope the weather is a little more cooperative this weekend.

I keep telling Brains France that the west coast needs a Bristol type track. I think his email server must be down or something, no reply yet.

Rain....I'll have to go look that word up.
