I just wonder which driver Hillary's handlers will pick for her to have "always been a fan of".

Easy; Jeff Gordon.

(and no, I'm not back, I'm just "testing" the high-def that is now next to the computer monitor - at least that's the story I'm giving Brainless France)

[NormsRevenge]

Thanks for the BumP to Extended,, Race one of another likely topsy turvy season is almost Ready To Rev 'em Up!!!

Thanks for the lift, Jim. We'll try and not trash the place too bad this year. The new pavement is pretty cool tho. ;-)

Please, put me down for 15 cautions, 5 for blown right front tires. Thanx.

[I want to know]

This has been a hard choice, between Gordon, Earnhardt, Stewart, and Johnson, but I'm going to forget that he's starting 42nd and go with Gordon.

I'm hoping he has the moxie it takes (and the car) to push him to the front.

[budman_2001]

60 on the WrWrWr team too----Boris is a sleeper---that team's got spunk, and har too!

[alancarp]
