How in the heck do they pass there? It is one big, continuous turn (having flown over it many times).

Okay ...... this race should be alotta fun! Some tempers are already up, there are chase spots on the line, and they're racing at BRISTOL, baby! I will go ahead and predict the round number of 22 cautions for this brawl ..... er .... race.

Here are a few shots of my and Mrs. JackKnife's trip to the beach last weekend.

There was an offshore powerboat race on sunday afternoon about a mile down the beach. I grabbed the camera and told Mrs. JackKife I'd be back in a bit. Never seen these guys. Pretty awesome power and sound! (My cheap camera doesn't do it justice)

Last, but not least, my fat butt parked in my favorite beach chair.
