Don't know, got sidetracked for a minute there. Will watch, IF and when they quit having commercials.

[glock rocks]

Weaver (who just lost it and caused the caution).

[WestCoastGal]

Good job, now watch your mirror for that red 8 bumper coming up behind you.

Hopefully I can catch up, made a few adjustments in the pits to my tires and a slight wedge adjustment.

[tubebender]

I s Bliss on the lead lap?

[Pete-R-Bilt]

Thanks, had some minor surgery this afternoon and and doing the bug thing tonight...

[WestCoastGal]

Elliott Sadler +1200
Mark Martin +1200
Matt Kenseth +1200
Jamie McMurray +1500
Greg Biffle +1500

I think the betting guys are wrong with these numbers.

[SouthTexas]

Didn't used to watch them much, but I am more each year!

[NYTexan]

Lotta detail work there WCG!

Me?, I just try ta keep the lug nuts tight!

[SouthTexas]

Think they're floating too much too. As the Jr fans at work told me, California is Gordon's track.LOL

[WestCoastGal]

I think so, no trackpass for trucks.

[WestCoastGal]

Take care of yourself Pete.

We'll let you take a nap if you need it, right guys?

:)

[NYTexan]

Of course they don't as much as the Oracle of the Oval Lap!

(Don't these guys have research teams, or do they fly by the seat of their pants?)

[glock rocks]

I hope you're doing okay. Not fun. Hang in there.

[tubebender]

Just let me try that Air Horn one more time...

[NYTexan]

don't = don't know

[WestCoastGal]

Of course not, maybe they should hire me.

Do the odds change after practice? Or are they set?

[Roccus]

I called your boy last week, didn't I?
}:^)

[WestCoastGal]

Yep you did. Who you going for this week?

[Roccus]

Oh, I wasn't rootin' for him!!
Unless Ward gets a ride, I'm behind Front Row Joe. lol

[NYTexan]

They may possibly change, But here is another perspective:
