Congratulations to your Bil on his win. Where are the finals? Kasey Kane won the big one and he did it the hard way by transferring from a qualifier. He was voted the people choice to run this weekend and was the first to ever win via this route...

Then again she owns a gun.

LOL and as in my case, I'm the one that taught her to shoot.

Who won? My bro-in-law won his division, pro 197lb., and secured a spot at the Arnold! He’s gonna wrestle in the Masters division tommorrow.

That's how it's done! (And in Tahoe to boot)

It seems this race is what the owners have given up to the drivers so they can make some real cash for themselves.

Kevin Harvick's comments last night on his winning a million: "Richard took 60% off the top to put back into the team, wife took 39%, and I got 1%".

He probably did get to pay the taxes on the whole thing. :)

"Richard took 60% off the top to put back into the team, wife took 39%, and I got 1%".

That was never the intent of this race. I am in shock that this could happen. I guess it depends upon individual contracts.

When they first started this all star stuff they wanted to make sure that the most popular drivers would race. But new contracts and time has made this thing a joke if what Harvic said is true.

I don't know if he was being serious either.

In the past, I know some drivers gave the whole thing to charities. It costs a lot to field one of these cars, don't really know what Richard's take would be, if any.

On the other hand, if he got 2.5% from Delana, he's dong better than most of us. ;)
