Yep, I'm hurting from losing Joe. I got Biffle and Johnson and wherever Martin ended up, but all I can hope for from Joe is some bonus points for all the laps he led.

I'm tossing caution to the wind from here on out,,

Kurt leads JJ by 5 points in the overall points, Flash in 10th, 92 back. Ouch!

The Busch Series is the only series going to Mexico City and I don't think points count.

Thanks for a great race thread, fun day. Once again I picked the wrong Hendrick engine.

Maybe I'll head over to the Academy Awards thread and see if I have any luck there. Ha ha.

Next week is only the Busch race from Mexico. Thenthe following week I have the thread again for Las Vegas. Be there or be square.

Front Row Joe led the most laps, so he earned 20 bonus points.

Thanks again for the company and the thread. See anybody that's showing up for Busch foreign road racing next week, and everybody else in 2 weeks.

Did just hear that Sirius is paying Nascar $100,000,000.00 for broadcast rights starting in 2007. I bought my son a XM set so he could listen to the races when he travels...
