Good news - Nat’l Guard snubs nose at DC. They are getting a lot for their money.

You can understand the Democrat’s desire to eliminate military advertising on race cars:

“We made the economy so bad there’s no place else to work, so why should we spend money to get recruits?”

I wish Newman luck too after they back-doored the Army sponsorship.

Everytime they go by and even when they crash .. It's a great place for an ad. ;-)

I saw the clips of those spills. Their riding suits must be coated in grease to slide as like they do.

Don’t tell you-know-who but both JJ (engine) and Jr (wreck) are starting in the back of the pack today.

A nice looking dog. I was wondering if the feet were not used to rocky terrain. My yard is very rocky so my dogs have tough feet. JJ and Jr will have a tough day today. Jr smacked the wall in final practice and did not have time to get the backup out for even a lap.

Let me get this straight... Jr and JJ starting at the back is bad but it’s ok to run Hornish?

Hopefully there won't be any shoe trowing incidents today. Hopefully we Americans have more class than that.

Too bad for that crybaby Jacques Villeneuve though. What goes around comes around pal.

It looks like Hornish is not being scored currently on Yahoo Racing. He is still shown as NE.
