Thanks! Already picked my drivers using a highly scientifically refined method.. (Darts!)
NICE Layout Mr. Glock...suhweeet!
Feel like I gots some hot rubber in my ear!
Let's go GREEN !!
I didn't pick mine. Then again... I'm not too convinced it makes any difference :o)
I want to thank you again for all the cool Lowes pictures. They're great.
Thanks fer runnin' this weeks thread!
Is Bo consulting on this weeks picks?
He takes a real low profile about this time every week. Heck, it wasn't even a points race last week, and I didn't see him until Saturday morning.
Hope they don't take Memorial Day off!
bbq, mushroom soup, pan fried steak and whatnot. Uh, did mention roated leg of lamb?
Grreat shots of the cars, thanks!
Doh! I roasted that leg of lamb.
Frankly Charlotte, I don't give an Updating Doppler...
LOL... post 10 was mine... I've gotta learn html some day... eek.
Sounds like ya got the poor pooch brow beat! LOL
Don't forget the deaf Eaker Ping!
My drivers don't generally take the weekend off until I make my Fantasy picks :o\
Thanks for the ping. My fantasy league team had better qualify its way into the race - or else they're a'going home.
Good thought, I may have to rearrange the schedule Friday.
It was my pleasure...I have over 500 from last year's race trip...I'm going thru withdrawal already!
The 600 mile race at CHARLOTTE Motor Speedway is the longest race on the Nascar Circuit. Charlotte has been hosting the race since 1960 when Bruton Smith, Chairman of Speedway Motorsports Inc, talked Nascar into bringing the 600 miler to his new track. "Bigger is better" says Smith about the length of this race.
Originally named the "World 600" Nascar's longest race was renamed the "Coca-Cola 600" in 1986.
