PLEASE READ THIS

---

This thread is for fans of Nascar. It was started by NormsRevenge 3 years ago to be a fun place for those that love racing to gather on race day to follow along and discuss the race.

It was also started so our military members and families could also visit it and get info and recaps about race results and goings on in Nascar.

It is NOT a political thread, at least not in off election years and posting of personal political views and rumors re: Nascar and/or drivers is highly discouraged and blatant attempts to stir up controversy will NOT be tolerated.

If you wish to discuss politics, please take it to another thread where it is appropriate or start your own thread.

Posting of inappropriate pictures will also result in your post(s) being pulled. This is a family friendly thread, please keep that in mind.

Please keep the thread on topic as much as possible during the race. We post the current race positions and discussion of what is happening in the race for those that may not have the TV in the same room as the computer. Or, in some instances some may not even have the viewing channel available on their cable.

Thanks..

OK, Now let’s go racing!!

(Ping admin moderator to change...)

[al baby]

how are you W.C.G.?

[AGreatPer]

Excellent post.

Sure wish Yahoo could get their act together for our Freeper League.

BTW, After California there is a week off. What is it with that? Those panzies.

[CedarDave]

So what happened to NormsRevenge?

[al baby]

[WestCoastGal]

Sorry, I've had a rough few days here, no sleep plus ++++

Thanks for getting it fixed. Thanks Admin Mod.

[WestCoastGal]

Hi Al, I've been better.

Mom said there would be days like this.

How's by you?

[WestCoastGal]

Yeah, and they are only going to Las Vegas.

The Busch race is in Mexico. Arriba!!!

[WestCoastGal]

Norm is still the Grand Poobah of the thread. :)

[WestCoastGal]

We were discussing the pink pajama thread early yesterday on Pukin Dogs thread. (Peggy Noonan)

Hope AB shows "The Commercial"!

[WestCoastGal]

That was the greatest commercial. I haven't seen it since the Super Bowl though.

Here's the link to the campaign for the returning soldiers.

I won my bar pool last week with Gordon. Of course, I am last pick this week. I got M Waltrip. Any chance at all? I have no clue about this guy.

[CedarDave]

They showed it during Daytona last week. This is the best link (higher resolution than on AB's site):

According to my notes Mikey finished in the 20's last September and 32nd in May/04.

Although, he does have Jr's cars this year...which may not mean much since Jr had a heck of a time at California.

I wouldn't pick him if I had the choice I guess. He really messed me up at Daytona points wise in the FRRL, but not his fault/engine. :(
