Gordon wants NASCAR to eliminate pit road timing lines: Friday #24-Jeff Gordon was asked about the increased number of penalties issued to teams this season:
Jeff Gordon: "I think the camera system speaks for itself. It's black & white if you want to put it that way. When things roll out of the box or guys leave over the wall too soon or you drive through too many boxes, it's going to bust you. And so it's made all of us have to be that much cleaner and do our jobs that much better and pay more attention to more things than we used to. That didn't have anything to do with what I did last week [when he got caught for speeding late in the race at Martinsville]. That was just us trying to take advantage of speed lines. I think that's the next step. We've got to get rid of these speed lines. It doesn't make any sense. The speed limit is the speed limit. You should never be able to break the speed limit. You should carry the speed limit all the way down pit road. What we do is find pit stalls to try to get around that. So we're ramping up and slowing down and that's what got us in Martinsville. We were just too aggressive with it."(Team Chevy Racing)(4-11-2015)

MORE F'ING cancer, I hate that $&!T. Why can't all the scumbag politicians get it instead?

Tabitha Burton battling breast cancer: Two weeks ago, Tabitha Burton, mother of Sprint Cup driver #26-Jeb Burton and wife of former Daytona 500 winner Ward Burton, was diagnosed with breast cancer. Jeb, driving for BK Racing in his rookie season in the Sprint Cup series, honored his mother by having the deck lid of his #26 Toyota painted to wish his her well. Friday morning Jeb tweeted a picture of the design. After failing to qualify for Saturday's Duck Commander 500, Burton told NASCAR Talk the deck lid was a surprise for his mother that day and he hadn't heard from her yet. Burton said he might keep the tribute for one more race.(NBC Sports)(4-11-2015)

Military family receives year of groceries from Eckrich: On the set of "Good Morning Texas," Army Sergeant Robert Morgan and his wife Ashley were honored by Eckrich, the makers of naturally hardwood smoked sausage and delimeats, after being surprised with a special invitation to be VIP guests of theirs and the #43 Richard Petty Motorsports race team during this Saturday's race in Ft. Worth. The offer from Eckrich to join the team came with official team crew shirts and hats for the Morgan family. But, there was more. Eckrich then presented the family with a gift of free groceries for one year at Kroger. The groceries will help the Morgans who are parents of two young children. Eckrich, a brand of Smithfield Foods, will host Sergeant Morgan and his wife Saturday at the race track with an insider look at the No. 43 Eckrich race team. The family will join the team on the starting grid before the race and split their time during the race between the team's pit box and a luxury suite. Sergeant Morgan is currently active duty and serving in Dallas. He has been enlisted in the Army since 2007 and has been deployed to Iraq to serve our country. The race experience and gift of free groceries is part of Eckrich's ongoing partnership with Operation Homefront, a national nonprofit that provides emergency financial and other assistance to the families of service members and wounded warriors.(Breaking Limits)(4-11-2015)

I wasn’t expecting a night race this early in the season. Guess I’d better pay more contention.

Trying to watch the race, but my new German Shepherd puppy is trying to bite my arm off. Guess he came pre attack trained.
