I see. Thanks. I was just wondering why so many tracks have sealant on them instead of being resurfaced or something.

The sealant is more of a preservative for weather and some of them can also be used to improve grip.

Eat your heart out GoDaddy.

OK

I’m thinking that brainless France has spent WAAAYY too much time in the Hash Pipe Den in Amsterdam with bernie from F1.

As far as I can deduce from Busch Q they are going to do the same for Cup Q.

Send out 1 car for a get to speed lap and then Lap 2 is the Timed Lap while they send out the next car on the cool down lap from the one that just posted a time.

After All have done that then they are taking the Top 12 and running them from slowest to fastest to come up with the Top 12 Starting Positions and the rest of them line up by the initial Q Speed.

Stay tuned for the next update from as “The Crankshaft Turns”

Well now they are showing the Teams cutting the Mold Vent rubber off the Tyres for “Areo” reasons.

Can’t drill tiny holes so we find something else to do.

DW says “back in the day we did the same including the Sidewall Lettering.”

I don't look like My Daddy.

All kidding aside that is going to be one Pretty Dog. Now all Ya gotta do is keep the Crunchies coming;)

BTW- the broken mirror thingy with 6whine was the River has to flow NORTH from South.

[MtnClimber]

Very good! That is who he is named after. I think he will be a big boy. When we got him at 8 weeks he was 17 lbs. Now at 12 weeks he is 35 lbs. My wife thinks he looks like a baby bear. His nickname is Boo Boo.

Awesome dog

(NASCAR Statistics)

How are pit stall's chosen? by qualifying results, the 1st choose their stall and so on.
If a car/driver has to go to the rear of the field before the start of the race due to driver change, backup car,
engine/transmission change, etc they do NOT lose their pit stall selection
