North Carolina Speedway- Rockingham,NC A joint venture between Darlington Raceway builder Harold Brasington and landowner Bill Land, North Carolina Speedway's first race was held in 1965. Over time, the track came under control of L.G. DeWitt, a local trucking company executive who supervised reshaping the original flat mile track into the present, banked 1.017-mile oval in 1969.

[Pete-R-Bilt]

did you know he also owns a trucking company?

[steveegg]

He's definitely coming.

Rusty's workign on lapped traffic now.

You mean you don't watch the Beaver?!

Been there, done that.

And yup, June could whip her senseless! Imagine Ward could do the same to the old peroni-guy too.

Meanwhile, back in Florida, they are still trying to have a race, but Dominguez just ran into Fernandez (imagine 2 mexicans clashing and taking AF out, which wont go over big with the south of the border gang with Monterey GP next on the sched-yule). PT still leads, Jourdan, Junquera, Haberfailed, Vasser, Manning, Moreene-o, Montereo, XXX, YYY, ZZZZ.

Hehehe....have to go with the old classics. The new sitcoms suck.

[steveegg]

Geez; why watch a series that has a crash every time someone taps something?

Rusty's just mowing down the lapped cars.

[glock rocks]

what lap are we at?

[budman_2001]

Geez; why watch a series that has a crash every time someone taps something?

Family peace in a one-tv household.

The maddening thing is now, SPEED and FOX are conspiring to have commercials on at almost the same times. :-(

[Overtaxed]

Caution lap174

[steveegg]

Another caution. Jr. spun.

[Mo1]

did you know he also owns a trucking company?

Actually no I didn't .. I had to ask Mr. Mo1 about it .. he says it was his father's business and that was how Mark first learned how to drive when he was 10 years old ..

[steveegg]

Race off pit road...Martin, Rusty Wallace, Busch, Bobby Labonte, Ward Burton

[CougarGA7]

Jr. car just isn't right. You can see him fighting it in every corner. Hope this isn't a trend.

[steveegg]

I hear you. As for Speed and Fox timing their commercials, it only makes sense because Fox owns Speed :-(

[NormsRevenge]

LOL... This Jackie Stewart and UPS commercial is a good one!

[Mo1]

Doesn't looks like Jr's gonna have a good race today

[StayoutdaBushesWay]

Yeah, it is! LOL

[steveegg]

And if it's a restart, Rusty leaps out to a lead.

And it's a restart.

Jr's still loose.

[steveegg]

Tony Stewart drilled Kyle Petty in the middle of Jr's spin. NA$CAR didn't run another yellow flag lap so he could repair it better.

[CougarGA7]

The look on Jarrett's face is priceless.

[steveegg]

Yep. Busch is actually catching Wallace.
