It's a road course event at Sonoma this week-end for the Nextel Cup circuit.

Temperatures will be up both on and off the track.

See ya there!

Stupid, boring, yawner race.

I now hate road course races more than I did before it started!

I vow to never watch another one again.

Forgive me, but I like side-by-side racing, not single-file follow the leader.

Terry Labonte gets a top five by fuel mileage. Anyone surprised, no one with a faster or better car can catch up to pass him!

Stupid, boring race.

[steveegg]

212-mile race. Looks a lot like Milwaukee.

[don-o]

Red flag is a dead stop - when thay have a lot of work on cleanup of the track.

[steveegg]

The track was completely blocked between the wrecked cars and the wreckers pulling them apart. Kind of hard to get the cars through to continue under caution.

[NormsRevenge]

It depends on the track condition and as you mentioned track type, , it this case, wreckage is on the track so thus a stoppage of the race,, spin-outs and such where damage isn't present or the spinnee isn't in the way or likely to get clobbered get cut a bit of slack,, I agree it is different kind of race, more so for safety concerns and the layout of the track

[SouthTexas]

I'm sure we'll see it several more times before they get back to racing.

Terry saving a lot of fuel now.

[don-o]

I vow to never watch another one again.

Me too, But, I cannot stay away from the thread, Now we gotta look at Hollywood types.

[SouthTexas]

They could have gone by on the dirt, it's worked all day!

[Jrabbit]

Yes....I see that now....

I think I've got it...but not sure I like it.

[steveegg]

Of course, the question is whether he'll suffer vapor lock-up.

Wish I could stay for the end, but the local track is calling. They rained out last week (not that I would've been able to make it; took my dad out to eat for Father's Day), so I need to make it this week to keep my $3 off card valid.

[AGreatPer]

Handing out water. He said, next the'll be handing out Grey Poupon. What a great idea for Grey Poupon to make a commercial like that.

[NormsRevenge]

I hear ya.. In comparison, It's a cup of tea when ya want a jolt of caffeine.
See ya next week, I could have and should have taken a couple quick dips during this one,,, as it is, I squeeezed in a beer run.. so its not a complete loss.

[steveegg]

Don't think the pace truck could handle it :-)

Seriesly, the space between the walls isn't quite wide enough for that with 4 wrecked cars and wreckers either.

[SouthTexas]

have fun! Sorry you are going to miss the thrilling finish!

[NormsRevenge]

But, I cannot stay away from the thread,

Gotcha! :-}

[don-o]

See ya Steve. Have more fun at the track

[WestCoastGal]

Have fun.

We'll see who starts and who doesn't here shortly.

[tubebender]

It's not water...it's Evian...

[michigander]

spin-outs and such where damage isn't present or the spinnee isn't in the way or likely to get clobbered get cut a bit of slack,,

C'mon Norm,
The 2 prior cautions were dumb and this wouldn't be happening if they treated them properly (blue flag, local).

Gee now it seems they have Terry mic'ed for sound. He's even embarassed to talk to 'em.

[SouthTexas]

That would be a bit much, but this is California.
