Thanks. Cya tomorrow!!!

[steveegg]

Who won? The good guy, of course :-)

Expect the sweep tomorrow and another week of the victory lane sale at Matt Kenseth's store.

[steveegg]

Er, make that today. I need caffeine.

[heckler]

Thanks for the pinging as always.

What happened to Junior in qualifying???

[WestCoastGal]

Early draw, slick track, loose car,

However, they did dial it in during Happy Hour.....5th fastest average lap times. If he can stay out of trouble he does have a fast car which will run on the bottom now.

Lots of luck and pit strategy will be needed tonight.

He did start back there last year and finished 9th.

Just need a little help.

I know it's not a bumpdraft track but bumps from heaven are always welcome.

Where's breakfast G?

[GRRRRR]

GOOOOOOD MORNING BRISTOL FANS!!!

COFFEEE!!!

How bout some Ho Ho's????

Rachel Ray's Cooking NOW!

[GRRRRR]

100,000 Campers are cooking breakfast...eggs, spam, bacon, hash, toast, waffles, pancakes, coffee....smells GREAT!

[WestCoastGal]

I recently bought her Express Lane Meals cookbook. I have a thing for cookbooks.......this one has great recipes in it.

My favorite Food Network cook is Tyler Florence and then Bobby Flay. Flay comes up with great stuff but Tyler is cuter. :)

[WestCoastGal]

Is that RV park right outside the track..looks like it.

I can smell the bacon and eggs cooking along with that familiar scent of fuel from the track. Yum

[GRRRRR]

Yep, All American camp ground is right next to the track. It is quite the hilly place to park your RV, requiring some creative leveling with 2 x 6 planks etc. Asphalt for the most part, no electricity, sewer or water so the generators run all the time.

Here's a pic of the entire area around the track...If you look at the track, 6 o'clock position, that's an area for drivers and sponsors RV's etc. At 3'oclock position that's the All American Camp Ground. At 4-5 O'clock, that's Red Barn Camping. The drag strip is at 12 O'Clock High...literally every area around the track is RV's and Camping...

[SouthTexas]

I'll get to watch the race if I'm lucky! :)

[WestCoastGal]

Thanks G that's a great description & pic where everything is.

I think I see Flash's bus!! :)

[GRRRRR]

Nah..he doesn't STAY at the track...he and most of the top drivers have a helocopter that takes them to a secret location. They even have an air traffic control center at the track, so I've been told, to direct the helo's in and out...there's LOTS of them!

[oxcart]
