HOW ABOUT THIS PACE CAR FOR THE RACE? I WANT IT :)

The pace car will be a 2SS model with an automatic trans featuring a Red Jewel Tintcoat paint job with custom Coke Zero 400 pace car graphics

Don't forget the restrictor plate will be the largest ever, having a 1 1/32-inch opening to make up for the new spoiler on the Cup cars which adds more drag. There should hopefully be some good racing and I'm also hoping some of the guys don't ride around in the back until the finish. That's a real DRAG.

Happy Birthday to our great country - let no one take it from us.

LADY and...


Let's Go Racing!!!


Subway Jalapeno 250 Nationwide race Friday night at 7:30 PM on ESPN

~ The Nationwide race will debut the new COT NW cars -- Mustang, Challenger and Camry models which identify more with actual production cars you see on the street. I just wish Chevy had agreed to allow the Camaro to compete - they would have sold a lot of cars!

Also..........the Coke Zero 400 will be according to Turner Sports a 3D production on NASCAR.COM and DIRECTV will feature two custom racing feeds produced specifically for 3D. The first will provide a unique look at the racing action from strategically placed cameras around the track designed to maximize the effect of 3D. The second stream will bring the mayhem of pit row into the third dimension creating a one-of-a-kind visual experience.

NASCAR (and motorsports, in general) seems well suited for the 3D format. Now the question is, will fans get motion sickness during the race?

[umgud]

Great presentation WCG.

[saganite]

It was good to see Stewart Haas racing make a positive step forward in the chase with a 2nd and a 6th today. Bad news, JJ won again. GRR!

[WestCoastGal]

Thanks - I started it and kept going - so I posted it early. :)

[goseminoles]

Favorite race! Boogity!

[WestCoastGal]

It’s going to be hard to beat JJ - he and Chad are on it again this year.

[WestCoastGal]

Dale Jr video and comments on #3 car here - if you can get past the Geico caveman

[MtnClimber]

How dare they name a Coca Cola NASCAR race after our Marxist in Chief!

[kbennkc]

If that ain't NASCAR I'll kiss where you can't reach !

[IYellAtMyTV]

Top 10?!

[o_zarkman44]

NASCAR in 3D??? Who has the sets to watch that?

[o_zarkman44]

NASCAR in 3D??? Who has the sets to watch that?

[WestCoastGal]

Not very many - I think it would make me nauseous anyway :P

[WestCoastGal]

THAT is really funny LOL

[WestCoastGal]

I put the Daytona thread up early - I started it and didn’t want to mess it up :)

[NormsRevenge]

Looks good to me. Thanks! :-}

You know how some folks get around here without it.

I’m going back in the pool. We got Texas weather,, Hot ..

[tubebender]

Great graphics Gal!!! I missed todays race but it a once a year thing my Wife and I do and enjoy...

[cleveland gop]

HERE!

[Pete-R-Bilt]

Nice job!

[Pete-R-Bilt]

Gonna be fun watchin Saturdays race!

[Pete-R-Bilt]

got my favorite picked, but if he's gonna win he'll have to

[o_zarkman44]

Great job on the thread WCG! Not sure if I will be able to watch the race. Am involved in a Missouri US Senate Campaign up to my ears and we have events all weekend. But my Fantasy picks will be in order!

[WestCoastGal]

COOL PIC :)

[SouthTexas]

Looks great and you were worried if you remembered how.

[MtnClimber]

The word “zero” will be banned by the FCC as racist. We will need to use words like “DeeWoo” or “Circle” to get around the internet censor filters set up to prevent criticism of messiah(0). For NASCAR racing, I expect that winning will be opressed. At some point winning will be called “The Last Looser” or “The last of the have nots”. Redistribution of prize money to highest number placer have nots will make races a race to tie for last. No gasoline will generate the utopian ending with no C”circle”2 emissions except from noses of excited socialists, especicially our messiah of uno minus uno! DeeWoo laps and everyone ties for last in tribute for messiah circle.

My boy at Sears Point a couple of years ago...

[WestCoastGal]

I had to go back to an old source code I had - for some reason the newer ones get all screwed up once you add pics.

Are you watching out for Alex? I head something on news last night that got my attention. They said if it turns north it will go through the route where some of us live (your son) where they had 19” of rain three years ago.

[AGreatPer]

Beautiful intro.

I played golf with that Rucker guy some years ago when they played here in Hershey. He shot an honest 78 on a tough course.

[SouthTexas]

Well even if it threw you a few curves, you still hit it aout of the park.

Haven’t given the storm a second thought. It takes a day or two to stablize when it jumps land but at the moment, it looks like it’s way south.

Haven’t taken the time to check the spaghetti maps this morning, but imagine they are all over the place. Not time to worry (yet). :)

[Pete-R-Bilt]

SWEET!

[SouthTexas]

Looks like we are going to get some rain, have had a couple of small showers already today. Once the Gulf is “distrubed”, it randomly spits out squalls.

Still looks like landfall will be south of the Rio Grande, with a good rain 100 miles north. You and son should be well away from anything and you might not even see any rain at all.

[WestCoastGal]

Good - we did get rain today off and on! Don’t want the amount a hurricane would bring.

I made an error on the heading page. Danica is not racing Daytona Steve Arpin will be in the #7 for JRM.

[SouthTexas]

They’re still tweaking the forecast and a bit of a conflict with the last report. Still this thing isn’t strong enough to get that far inland.

OK, I think Danica may actually do better on a longer track.

[WestCoastGal]

She’s up at Chicagoland :)

[don-o]

Very nice Gal

[don-o]

[tubebender]

Lions and Tigers and Babies? oh my...

[Roccus]

Haven’t taken the time to check the spaghetti maps this morning, but imagine they are all over the place

Did you notice how the price of oil rose and then fell in direct correlation to the breathless hysteria on the Weather Channel regarding Alex?

[happydogx2]

Awesome graphics, great job!

[SouthTexas]

They’ll always hype a storm because of the potential. Not so much because of the damage it may do, just because of all the shutdowns, from production to drilling rigs.

[WestCoastGal]

Thank you :)

[WestCoastGal]

As you all know I only collect pics of one driver, his car and his team cars. Here are the one's for this weekend, if you guys have your favorites feel free to post them here :)


#7 has a new sponsor Wow products. Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s name and signature is now on the packaging of cheeseburgers, wings, as well as pork and chicken sandwiches made by WOW! Foods. The #7 will be driven by Steve Arpin this weekend.



Greg Sacks (57 years old) brought Grand Touring Vodka GrandTouringVodka to JRM and will drive the 88 at Daytona. His bio... BIO



This is the #88 National Guard Cup car scheme this weekend.

[tubebender]

Well since you asked...

[WestCoastGal]

VERY nice - who’s car?

[tubebender]

I don’t really know but I suspect it ran in the cross country Cannon Ball Express. It says Bill France on the door and may be a knockoff of one of his early race cars from back in the day...

[SouthTexas]

You might should go pick up anything that can float away.

Alex is still not a hurricane, but it’s getting bigger and bigger.

Typical south Texas,northern Mexico forecast is damp and breezy. :)

[WestCoastGal]

Probably everything would float away here. No drainage except gully’s and stuff - Actually if there really was a flood here there is no way out other than through either end of the road where the creek rises up and fills the road.

I think you will get a lot more than us. Keep us posted!

[tubebender]

If I may be so bold... 10 day forecast for Tork...

[SouthTexas]

Well you do have sunshine, but it’s still too cold for me!

Are you sure that’s the sun or is it just good pictures?

[tubebender]

Your guy is trying to smooth talk his way past some jerk AP writer
