Tony's tire just gave up and he hits the wall.

Mark Martin wins, Harvick second.

Wow

Thanks, it's probably too hot in there now. I forgot I turned on the heater back when we restarted.

I hope tomorrow's race is good, sometimes California gets boring.

Fun race... wonder if it was just the debris that caused all the flats, or if goodyear missed the setup again. dunno.

Man, this was a long race... seemed like a cup race (well, and it had so many buschwackers.

See all y'all here tomorrow morning

As a Harvick fan, I figured it was best for me to keep out of sight last week! It may be safe to come out now.
GO TWO-NINER!!!!

No reason to stay out of sight. I like Kevin too, actually visit his website and message board. I don't think that incident was anything but a racing deal. :)

Welcome back!
