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?

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!

Hopefully, a better week for Regan Smith and the Furniture Row 78 team. Last week, they had a broken right-front wheel after the first pit stop and then a broken trasmission toward the end of the race!

Thanks everyone - that race was wild - thanks for the pics NYTexan and all the great commentary everyone!!

“Dale Earnhardt Jr: “I Wonder Why They’ve Got That?” -— You and me both Jr - I’ve been wondering for almost two years WHY they got the stuff (equipment) they did and you didn’t!!!

He also said - “We learned a good lesson and we had two cars in the stable that ran really good and two that didn’t, and we learned a lot.”

Jr “Too rough to run around the top really bad. It’s why I can’t see. (My head) like a ping pong ball between the headrests.”

LM asking if we need to put soft stuff on the headrest -Jr it ain’t gonna make it drive better putting stuff on headrest” (as bad as the car was running, worrying about the headrest at this point was stupid)

After the big one - (As we all held our breath) TJ “did ya make it” - Jr “YEP Heh” Jr “Did you see me go through it on the replay - (very proud of himself) as he should be! TJ says “we were in the right spot to get clipped and shot up (the track)”

“The only way I made it through that wreck, was being sideways!!”

Jr “It was like a surfer in the tube man. That was cool.”

Jr “I was thinking I was gonna get undressed a little early, and get in my street clothes. I guess not. Hehe”

During the red flag “The fire department is handing out water. That’s a little strange.” :)

LM: what’s wrong? Simple question Jr: I drove in the f’ing fence! (That one wins the stupid comment of the race LM) or is it the headrest comment?

LM “what was wrong before we drove in the fence?” Jr: you ain’t getting play by play by TJ? I got run into the wall!!!”

Jr: “I’m pissed. you can’t get on the bottom and do nothing. LM: we’re on the bottom again.

Jr: “I haven’t been able to do anything with this car all night long!”

Jr: “You can stay in line or go to bottom to make shit happen. go to bottom take some risks and we’ve been losing that all night”
