What'll happen this week?

This thread is posted on a weekly basis during the season and is intended for folks to get together on a family-safe thread, have a little fun and share a little bit about the sport, your favorite drivers and keep the conversation out of the mud and weeds while doing it.

We also run a Ping list, if you would like to be added, let one of the race thread posters (normsrevenge,WestCoastGal,glock rocks,NYTexan) and we'll make sure you're on it.

Hi Folks! Been staying away and trying to watch last nite's race on the DVR......I'll catchup with ya's in a few.....

[NYTexan]

Ya gotta love those 5mph easypass toll booths.

[Spruce]

Now THAT is how you sing the National Anthem! Good job!

[La Enchiladita]

Nice. Very nice. When is start time?

[SouthTexas]

Never looked at where mine starts! LOL

Anthem was pretty good until the end. As always, the flyover was a 10.

Time to go racin' !!!!

Someone must've given word for the drivers to pay attention during the anthem. I think it's rude to see the drivers chatting with their hats on during the anthem. That camera shot of Front row joe with his hand on his heart was nice, too.

[La Enchiladita]

Thanks, what beautiful screen captures.

I'm new to NASCAR...my sis talked me into watching the race. I just wanted to say how awesome it was to see/hear the Star Spangled Banner sung respectfully...that guy even had his hand over his heart! And, just so you all know...Everything I know about NASCAR, I learned from Lightening McQueen, ka-chow (Oh, my, it has been a long weekend with the grandsons!)
