That's the end of it for them...I wonder if Toyota will STAY for the whole season at this rate?

No it is not and you can bet your a$$ they will be.

The mistake was them buying into a salesman (MW) as opposed to someone that is a qualifed driver / owner. (someone mentioned that about 2 weeks ago).

and when the NFL introduced the instant replay, people bitched that the game would never be the same.

and when they introduced the 3 point shot to college hoops, people bitched that they just destroyed the "purity" of the game

etc.

They should have started with 2 or 3 cars - period.

The rules of the game have been changed. Your choice.

Toyota is here and they are here to stay. I didn't like it either. But I didn't like the COT crap, still pissed that no one from Nascar called me asking for input.

You are getting too old. You need to buy into the Global everything concept. You are resisting assimilation.

We know where you live....or at least your screen name.

Ok, rant /off. I need to leave anyway...got to go get me one of those wings for my Tahoe. Thanks, Tubebender!

I didn't know Tony Snow was up for surgery again.

I saw him either today or yesterday on the news and thought he didn't look well.

I hope all goes well for him.

Like your blog :)

[LasVegasMac]

What happened to him and Happy?

Not just those two, add Reed and Robot.

Good question.

Not enough studying the homework for COT 101?

[tubebender]

DID YA SEE THIS?

[WestCoastGal]

Yes he deserves to have the right equipment under him.

Otherwise he will never get the championship which is so coveted by all the drivers.

BTW, he can always fall back on his artwork. LOL

[steveegg]

Thanks. Now that I caught up on the first 5 seasons of "24", I'm back to more-or-less regular blogging.

[tubebender]

Q points are up on the league...

[GRRRRR]

I want a wing too!!

Seriously...how can Toyota stand to see half their field fail to qualify every weekend...I'm exaggerating a little, maybe...

I like Mikey and would like to see him run well, but durn laddie, you have to get into the race to win!!

[GRRRRR]

Naw, ya didn't sit for three weeks and do the MegaMarathon did ya???

I was just looking in iTunes store, they have seasons 1, 2, 3 and 5...for 1.99 an episode...is it worth it???

[Wolfstar]

LOL! Junior is a really nice guy...but I wouldn't recommend a graphic arts career for him ;-)

[GRRRRR]

I got a 1 point lump of coal...I can't believe I didn't start Flash this week. I figured this race is gonna be a crashfest...after qualifying and seeing them shake and shimming all over the track..maybe I'm good to go still...who knows...

[AGreatPer]

"how can Toyota stand to see half their field fail to qualify every weekend"

I have been wondering that for two years before this year and now it is reality.

Hey, M & M's put in another color and I was shocked.

What's next, US Steel doesn't make steel. Opps, that has already happened.

This should be a very interisting race. Consider they are all in Soap Box Derby Kit cars with engines.

Naw, ya didn't sit for three weeks and do the MegaMarathon did ya???

You know I did. I had to break in that shiny new upconvert DVD player, which outputs at 720p via HDMI.

I was just looking in iTunes store, they have seasons 1, 2, 3 and 5...for 1.99 an episode...is it worth it???

Let's see; $1.99/episide x 24 episodes = $47.76. Definitely NOT worth it for seasons 1 and 5 because that's the going price for the full-featured DVD set; but since seasons 2 and 3 (and 4) are going for about $57, it depends on whether you want the additional content.

Tar Smokers got 13 q points. - Flash and Sadler.

From Jayski...

Sad News - Eric Medlen: NHRA Funny Car driver Eric Medlen died Friday, four days after he suffered a severe closed-head injury in a test session crash at Gainesville, Fla. He was 33. Medlen's family elected to have him taken off life-support systems, which they said was Eric's wish for this type of situation. Medlen's Mustang Funny Car crashed head on into the right concrete barrier after it blew a tire on a test run the day after the Gatornationals at Gainesville Raceway. Medlen was one of four drivers for John Force Racing. The other three JFR drivers -- Force, Robert Hight and Ashley Force -- stayed in Florida with Medlen's family. Eric's father, John Medlen, said, “On behalf of the family, I want to thank the medical staff at Shands not just for giving Eric the very best care he could have received, but for the compassion it showed for Eric and all those close to him. I also want to thank the thousands of people who offered their prayers and support to us during this very difficult time.” More at ESPN.com, NHRA.com and Ford Racing.(3-23-2007)

Oh man...

[don-o]

Look what I found in the Kroger parking lot.

[don-o]

Ain't got no COT-wing on it.

[LasVegasMac]

And John Force was just talking, on Track Side, about telling his daughter that the "Monster" is out there.....

So sad for Eric Medlen and family. Thoughts and prayers for the family. RIP, Eric.

[LasVegasMac]

Junior is a really nice guy...but I wouldn't recommend a graphic arts career for him ;-)

Or a singing career either!

...the Chevro-LET set...

Stick to driving, Jr. Ok?
