High teens and low single digit lows, and snow, starting Tuesday in the high desert of Central Oregon. Last of the Christmas lights put up today and am glad I got it done before the real cold weather hits. Local ski resorts will be quite happy.
I’d like to see the 24 go out with the win. Good guy. Paid his dues and won races. Still competitive after a lot of years. It’d make a crappie year by NASCAR smell a little better.
I’m hoping the race gets started on time. If its delayed and the network switches viewing channels then I’ll miss it.
Rain delay warning - most likely going to be delayed today.
Well, here we are. At the end of all things... this season anyway. Congratulations to Erik Jones on his Camping World championship; Chris Buescher on his Xfinity championship.
And here is looking forward to today’s race (rain delay may be in the forecast). All four drivers deserve a win today. Jeff going out with #5 would be amazing; Kevin defending his championship with at stellar season; Kyle coming back from so much; and Martin driving for a little close to home team.
Good luck to all of them.
Hopefully we won’t be here all night. See you in a few hours.
(sigh, lost the entered ping list... how did that happen):

We had an awesome little snow squall on Friday night. Son and I had to run an errand in east Denver, then back to Greeley, then home. Running around in the new BMW was a blast. Definitely was a good purchase.
We are forecast for bitter cold and snow starting Wednesday night. Wonder if it will put a damper on the “Black Friday” madness.
How are pit stall's chosen? by qualifying results, the 1st choose their stall and so on.
If a car/driver has to go to the rear of the field before the start of the race due to driver change, backup car,
engine/transmission change, etc they do NOT lose their pit stall selection
While it would be kinda cool for the 24 to go out with #5....
While I’m amazed with the 18 Medical comeback and never say die ‘tude...
While I would love to see the 4 repeat..
I would most like to see the 78 take the Championship. The Team has worked their a$$e$ off, dealt with controversy, and Martin and Sherry dealing with the DAMNED C.
See me in a few hours?? If you’re coming over bring some extra vino (and chips and dip.) If tubebender shows up he’ll eat (and drink) everything in sight.
12 degrees outside and it’s only going to get colder in the next few days. I’m REALLY glad I got the Christmas lights up now.
we're getting a fine snow that alternates back and forth with fine rain... belay that, it's bigger now and switching tween snow and freezing rain
Yippie!!!
Lucky You
50 ish
Light breeze
Sunny
The King gave Jeffy 93 Autographed $1.00 Bills to go with the Money Clip Richard gave out after His last race. He has another one in the Motorhome if needed.
Mario Andretti is there.
Rain just picked up.
Everybody go NOW and get Your Backup Supplies- it's going to be a long way to Tipperary Folks!
kinda hope he gets it
I like Gordon don’t love him wish him the best but i think he will exit early for some reason not feeling the story book ending
You read the book ?
Checking in. More rain. Wonder what the record is for races with rain delays...
This year seemed a bit busy on rain delays perhaps el nino
What book?
