This thread is dedicated to the US troops who lost their lives in Iraq in service of their country.

God bless their families and may God's Peace and Comfort surround them in the hours of their sorrow.

We will Never Forget the ultimate sacrifices they have made in defense of Liberty and FReedom for All.

I think Newman is using magnets to keep that car stuck to the track.

BTW, We got a convoy...24 48 and 5 lined up in 16th 18th and 20th place.

[dirtydanusa]

Ryan Newman, 11 poles. Rusty Wallace, 0 poles. What a team!!! I can hear Rusty crying all the way from here!!
