OMG! I miss that show. We used to gather at the “Party House” where the Cool Parents would watch & party with us. They were cool with anything because it kept us off the streets.
Sigh- the good ol’ dayzzzz
Life was simple and inexpensive then

Truex, Jr. first Daytona 500 Outside-Polesitter to Finish Last since 1973:
#78-Martin Truex, Jr. picked up the 4th last-place finish of his NASCAR Sprint Cup Series career in Sunday's 56th Annual Daytona 500 at the Daytona International Speedway when his #78 Furniture Row Racing Chevrolet lost the engine after he completed 30 of the race's 200 laps. The finish was Truex's first since Phoenix in the fall of 2012, thirty-nine races ago, when he also started in the second position. This is the first last-place finish for the #78 at the Daytona International Speedway. However, the #78 did finish last once on the old Daytona Beach-Roadcourse in 1953 when Indianapolis native Frank Arford's 1953 Oldsmobile blew a gasket after 2 laps, putting him at the back of a 57-car field. This is Furniture Row Racing's first last-place run in the Daytona 500 since 2008, when Kenny Wallace's #87 Furniture Row Chevrolet lost the engine after 141 laps. Truex is the first outside-polesitter of the Daytona 500 to finish last since 1973, when Pete Hamilton's #9 Housby Mack Inc. 1972 Plymouth lost the engine after 33 laps. That race was the next-to-last of Hamilton's 64 Cup starts, a brief career highlighted by a win in the 1970 Daytona 500.(Lastcar)(2-25-2014)

I attended the Bristol night race last August.
Bought tix direct from the track.
Not a week goes by that I don’t get an email, a snail mail, or a phone call from them.
I have to applaud their zeal in marketing, even if it’s a bit tiresome.
I'm trying to get them other people to send stuff ;)
Yes Sir
All they got outta Me was $23.00 1 shirt, 1 patch for My windbreaker.
Brought everything else in with Us.
And no I’m not cheap, I’m FRUGAL!
Wow! What a deal!
Mail rules. I do that with my “spammers”
Bristol is a great track. Go if you get a chance,
Went last Fall. Mama got the Tix for My B-Day.
Where were You at?
We were there also. Turn 2
These days BOGO is good!
