WELCOME EVERYONE

This week we are going to Watkins Glen International Raceway in New York. Please join us for a full weekend of racing.

Watkins Glen International continues a road-racing tradition that dates back to 1948 -- when sports cars competed on the streets of the village at the southern tip of scenic Lake Seneca. The circuit, which at one time hosted the F1 United States Grand Prix, has grown to become one of the most respected facilities in the northeast.

Driver Points Behind Comments
Tony Stewart 3113 N/A What's on sale at Home Depot next weekend?
Jimmie Johnson 3008 -105 He's just hoping that Smoke doesn't realize the Chase doesn't start until after Richmond.
Greg Biffle 2861 -252 He's thankful there's no more road courses this year.
Rusty Wallace 2855 -258 Who cares who drives the Blue Deuce in 2006?
Mark Martin 2782 -331 Score two for the retirees.
Kurt Busch 2692 -421 He just cursed himself by signing a majorly-post-dated contract.
Jeremy Mayfield 2684 -369 Another week, another quality finish.
Ryan Newman 2646 -467 Barely still in the Chase. Another week of piss-poor performance and he's done.
Jamie McMurray 2599 -514 Latest guy in the musical chair known as 9th.
Carl Edwards 2593 -520 This race for 9th/10th is going to be FUN.
Elliot Sadler 2590 -3 (to 10th) 1 quality race of the last 5 and he's still within 9 points of 9th. Two words; Just Damn.
Dale Jarrett 2587 -6 RACE THE TRUCK! They don't have a Chase.
Jeff Gordon 2526 -67 The Drive for Five is alive.
Kevin Harvick 2523 -70 Continuing to go backwards.

Smoke has five wins in the last seven races? Unreal.

And w/o any major incidents that sent him him to the trailer. Goo for Tony,

Look for the Oval Office to give Tony a 200-point deduction Wednesday for NOT climbing the fence at Watkins Glen </sarcasm_wishful thinking>

Great day for Tony!!! And, I was very happy to see Jr come in 10th. He's a good road course driver, particularly at the Glen.

I am curious how many fans here think the top ten is going to change very much between now and the chase?

Thanks for posting Yahoo.

Only fitting that JDT is 8th. The puddle of goo team did well this week also. We should have gone with Pruett.

I just wish Norm would have gotten a few extra points so we could draft to the front.

There's only one guy I hope crashes.

I have to go back and see your link to the dragstrip event.

It's hard to catch up on everything.
