count me in. I'll be there watching. We just finished snow blowing 16 inches of snow out of the driveway. So might as well sit in front of the t.v. and watch some racing. And drool over the nice sunny weather in Calif.

California is typically a very boring race, but I'll watch it because I'm snowed in.

Too bad for Jr....DEI isnt doing too well so far this year. Well, at least Tony is still in it for now. Can anyone tell me what's up with the DLP commercial?? I get the 'mirrors' part of it, but what the he** is the elephant doing there? Am I missing something very basic?

Too bad Mark is only running a part schedule.. He looks like he could be running for the championship.

If he keeps running that well he'll be around for more.

:boring: :boring: . Another boring race. Tour of California bike race, AMA Supercross, and NHRA were more exciting to watch while Nascar was in a single file circle. Ashley Force cried after losing in 1st Rd of eliminations. Even my g/f was saying "How embarassing. It's a man's sport, toughen up". :D

WAL-MART!!! OH GOD, NOT WAL-MART!!!:D

Talking about Wal-Mart. My wife came home from work with an interesting rumor. The Asst Manager was saying that Wal-Mart is looking at possibly becoming the new Busch Series sponsor for 08'. Anyone else hear anything on this?:confused:

Thats what Harvick gets when he doesnt let Martin winIam not trying to start anything here..But I race alittle circle/drag and I for one am not going to let anyone just win,because you havent won it yet(tried 23 times) your going to have to earn it. I now there are alot of srious racers on here and I bet they tell you the same.

I dunno if I knew a guy had waited that long to get it I dont know if I would taken it from him especially if I know I have another 20 years to get it myself and have a very good chance of winning it.

How do you know that he had a good chance of winning it again? I remember that Sr. had tons of good chances, but could never clinch it until '98.

I really don't think it was an issue of "let him win"......more like selective timing on "when" to follow a rule that you have created like

throwing a yellow for a caution

Hell they drew the flag within seconds for a belt on the track at Cali.....yet waited for the desired results "drama" to raise interest at Daytona. I have to hand it to them they are smart.
