[Pete-R-Bilt]

here goes Kahne, i've got big hopes for him...

[WestCoastGal]

Way to go Ricky Rudd!!

Gee the Fords are hot today

[Noles]

This is my first post here. I'm computer challenged, and haven't quite figured out this site, so hope I'm not starting out doing something wrong. Having said that.. I wonder what everyone's opinon is of Fox vs NBC, and who you think is the best pit reporter.

[wvromania]

Jr. can drive.....just like Kyle use to....both son's of NASCAR greats.....I'm going to catch hell over this....TO BIG of shoes to fill just like Kyle. Has many fans not because of achievement just like Kyle did. Don't get me Wrong, i like Jr. as a CHEVROLET DRIVER, ETC.

but don't forget

THE DRIVE FOR FIVE IS ON!!!!!!!!!

[wvromania]

nice !!! but i say honestly put some coals on the grill and fry the duck so we can have fox back.....MO' better coverage!!!!

[wvromania]

“I like hearing both sides of the argument. I thought the movie was well done. But my dad was a Republican, and I'm a Republican, and so [it’s] not that I came out of there going, ‘I ain't voting for Bush again,’” says Earnhardt Jr

says enough to me.....just like budweiser endorsing kerry.

I'll never drink another BUD, switched to COORS, nor will i buy another die cast with BUD on it....etc.

[wvromania]

i may not have been clear...i'm glad jr. likes bush....
i just get sick seeing him driving that car with BUD on it...

I wish he'd drive for Childer's, etc....become his own man totally..... and get away from BUD and the favorite son status... i feel for kerry.

[WestCoastGal]

Welcome to the Nascar thread. We are here every week during racing season.

As far as NBC or Fox, they are pretty much the same to me. I do like the crew a little better on Fox. Speed has a good group for qualifying and Trackside live etc. Doesn't matter to me as long as it's on somewhere. lol

If you would like to be on the ping list FReepmail NormsRevenge.

[WestCoastGal]

That sentence may be confusing, he said he IS going to vote for Bush. He and the entire Earnhardt family are Republican.

[wvromania]

i realized that after i re-read it....but it still burns my butt about the bud car....after bud was made big not by the yupees, but by the majority of redneck drinkers.

[WestCoastGal]

So far.........

Front Row Joe 50.20
Rudd 50.23
DJ 50.30
Riggs
Candyman
Robot
Jr

[WestCoastGal]

Oh, ok I see what you're saying.

However, BUD is big bucks in Nascar, they have been with DEI for years. These days you need the money to be competitive.

I get tired of seeing Nextel everywhere. But all necessary evils I suppose.

[WestCoastGal]

So far.........

Front Row Joe 50.20
Rudd 50.23
DJ 50.30
Riggs
Flash
Candyman
Robot
Rubberhead
Jr

No qualifying bonus this week (no Joe, don't trust the Roush/Yates motor enough to take more than 1 of them, and I grabbed the Candy Man); I'll just have to catch up on the backstretch.
