Love Texas Speedway-any pics this week. Glad Stewart won last week. I'd like to see Harvick win sometime, don't know if that will happen again or not! :-)

Harvick needs a win bad, he has at least three top 20's here.

Improvement will be needed, hopefully the RCR shakeup over the off season will help.

Their cars have looked pretty stout the first 6 races. Bad luck has bit them a few times.

I have to go back and check who did tire testing at TMS.

Hold it! Hold it! Hold it!

I want to see you two in the Red White and Blue Trailer asap!

There will be no collusion pertaining to the League!

That will be a fine of a six pack of Diet Rite Cola and 3 pics of JJ in the winners circle...

BANK OF AMERICA PRE-RACE FAN CELEBRATION IS STAR-STUDDED -


Five-time Grammy winner Randy Travis and Little Big Town, one of country music’s hottest newcomers, will perform live at the Bank of America Pre-Race Fan Celebration on Sunday, April 9 prior to the start of the Samsung/RadioShack 500 NASCAR NEXTEL Cup race at Texas Motor Speedway.

The Bank of America Pre-Race Fan Celebration will provide an outstanding combination of country music talent, pairing one of its veteran superstars with one of its fastest-rising bands to ignite a crowd that is annually one of the largest during the NASCAR season.

Little Big Town will open for Travis, beginning at 11 a.m. CT on race day, and they will deliver two separate shows that will provide fans with more than an hour of musical entertainment.



In addition to its live performance, Little Big Town also will have the honor of singing the National Anthem prior to the start of the Samsung/RadioShack 500.

“When you come to the Samsung/RadioShack 500, you expect to see the superstars of NASCAR such as Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart as well as the series’ ‘Young Guns,’” Texas Motor Speedway President Eddie Gossage said. “But now with the Bank of America Pre-Race Fan Celebration, you also get to see one of country music’s veteran superstars in Randy Travis and country music’s ‘Young Gun’ in Little Big Town perform on race day. Fans will get the opportunity to see them all in one star-studded day.”

I have read first hand reports, they work well.

There is a $500.00 deposit which is refunded when you bring it back. :)

As we speak - Kyle is doing an appearance at the Bristol Public Library, at their grand opening of their new facility.

Good stuff that. I would sacrifice a portion of my anatomy which I don't use much, nowadays, to see him get a win - or even get up front.
