Infineon?

I am personally offended.

Somewhere in my archives, I have the original worksheet on which I laid out and computed the geometry for Sears Point Raceway.
Having spent the better part of three years designing and helping build it (with hand-held calculators; we did not yet have computers for this sort of thing), I'm not about to start calling it by a made up name.

Welcome to Sears Point Raceway.

Looks like NASCAR is serious about their drug policy......

NASCAR: Shane Hmiel's suspension to last until at least 2007

Posted on Wed, Jun. 22, 2005

By JIM UTTER ThatsRacin.com Writer

Former Busch Series driver Shane Hmiel, suspended indefinitely earlier this month for a second violation of NASCAR's substance abuse policy, will not allowed to apply for reinstatement until at least 2007, NASCAR officials said. Hmiel was suspended indefinitely June 3 after failing a substance-abuse test. He was suspended in September 2003 after failing a substance-abuse test but completed a prescribed rehabilitation program and was reinstated for NASCAR competition in February 2004. According to a statement released Wednesday, NASCAR will lay out a plan for Hmiel's possible reinstatement in 2007, which will include a rehabilitation program, medical and psychological reviews, as well as frequent testing. NASCAR's substance abuse policy, first adapted in 1988, provides for testing based on reasonable suspicion.

Hooray! It is one of my two "Vacation from NASCAR" weekends!

If I wanted to watch this garbage (Infineon and Watkins Glen) I'd watch Formula One.

[muleskinner]

NASCAR-Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. The left turn only lane. Sorry. Throw pies if you must.

[glock rocks]

including those serving in this nation's own highest institutions.

Damn straight, Norm. Whoop em into shape, hold their feet to the fire, and vote the useless ones out!

Sorry, it took me a while to see your intro. Spot on, Norm.

[countrydummy]

Thank you! Bobby! (yaaaaa) :)

With this being the last race that FOX will cover this season and with NBC starting with the next race at Daytona, I would like to get a consensus on who does a better job, FOX or NBC.

I think that FOX does a better job with their pre-race and commentating during the race. D.W. and Hammond are my two favorite commentators. The only that I like on NBC is B.P..

BTW, good picture. I would like to see the Free Republic logo on Mark's car. ;-)

Two years ago I was in the passenger seat at this raceway for a 100-mile (or was it 100 laps?) race of alternative fuel vehicles as part of the Michelin Bibendum event.
