Ahhh... That Grand Old Racetrack!

No sweat re: Therapy. I have a bunch of tapes and CD's from our dirt racin' season, and some GREAT old time footage of coupes and coaches.

Our Dirt Track Race Fan Club has a few get-togethers planned for the snow season, so I think I'll be OK 'til April!

But, come April... YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Cool. We'll be here 11:30 Central on Sunday to watch the race together, make a few posts, burn some ribs, and tip some beers. Come join us. There's only one Cup race after this one, at Homestead. Then... sigh... the dark and lonely winter months up until Race Weeks in the beginning of February at Daytona. There's about 40 of us doing the free Yahoo Fantasy Racing League thing too... I'm just a rookie, but Bubba Q Racing is going to be in top form next season, that I guar-on-tee !!

"I'm just a rookie, but Bubba Q Racing is going to be in top form next season, that I guar-on-tee !!"

Does that mean I need a new crewchief or a bigger bumper?

The rear bumper is really strong this week Wheels!

Well, we got 1-2 all-but-locked up, so it's a 2-lap shootout to the finish. Hmm, Rubberhead or Rocket Man? The Big Brown Truck, The Silver Bullet, the Northern Burton or Biffled? Backflipper or Schrader?

I may be way back in one of the 20 spots but I still have a record here. In week 21 I scored 367 points, the highest single week score of the year.

I can at least get a Bud Light with that, I think.
