Take care!

We are pumping as fast as we can! Can't help it if they make up the rules as they go along.

According to this story Eureka had 6 oil terminals at one time. Now there is only one and it's Chevron. The fuel is barged in here from the bay area... Union Oil

Gas is $3.39.9

That's part of the problem everywhere. Some is consolidation, some is fighting with the envirowhackos and the companies flat get tired of it.

Citgo just got tagged down here. Couldn't happen to a better bunch, but couldn't have happened at a worse time. It will be years before it ever comes to court though.

We still have reg at $2.89

Driver dies at Knoxville: Sprint-car driver Steve King died [Thursday] this afternoon from injuries suffered in a crash during Wednesday night’s Knoxville Nationals, hospital officials and the family confirmed. King, 33, of Jetmore, Kan., was pronounced dead at 3:32 p.m., Mercy spokesperson Gregg Lagan said. Preliminary reports from Knoxville Raceway indicate the wreck involved only King and happened when a part broke, sending his #88 car into the Turn 3 fence during a preliminary feature. King was taken by helicopter to Mercy late Wednesday night to undergo treatment for a brain injury, according to his Web site. Knoxville race director Ralph Capitani said earlier today that Nationals races would go on as scheduled. “Our hearts, our souls, our prayers are certainly with the family,” Capitani said. There have been 15 racing-related deaths at Knoxville, according to Capitani and Des Moines Register research. The most recent death was June 16, when Courtney Roger Schuur of Fridley, Minn., was killed during a sprint-car exhibition race held as part of a once-a-year “old-timers” event. An family update on King’s Web site — www.88king.com — also confirmed King died this afternoon. “He loved you all,” a note on the Web site said. “Thank you so much for your support. Please keep our family in your prayers. Arrangement details will be posted [at www.88king.com ] once they have been made.” The 46th Knoxville Nationals are scheduled to conclude Saturday night.(Des Moines Register)(8-10-2006)

Here is the link to the story about Richmond expanding to 112,000 by the spring race and to 150,000 over the next decade by building a overhanging balcony along the front stretch.

Not just yet....lol

Jeremy Mayfield, whom Ray Evernham said he terminated on Monday, was hoping to stall the firing by getting a temporary injunction Friday. The hearing was scheduled to begin at 11:30 a.m. in North Carolina Superior Court in Iredell County.

WooHoo [I think]

WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. - Robby Gordon will likely drive at Michigan and California and Shane Huffman will likely drive the rest of the year in the No. 88 JR Motorsports Busch Series Chevrolet, team owner Dale Earnhardt Jr. said Friday.

David Gilliland could have a new job next week.
August 11, 2006
12:05 PM EDT (16:05 GMT)

WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. -- With Jeremy Mayfield officially out of the No. 19 Dodge, it could clear the way for Elliott Sadler to take his seat. It might also mean the Robert Yates Racing debut of David Gilliland as soon as next week.


Team co-owner Doug Yates said on Friday at Watkins Glen that it will be up to Gilliland whether he wants to lose his 2007 rookie status by stepping into the seat early. Carl Edwards lost his rookie status in 2004 by competing in the final 13 races.

Holy courtrooms, Bailiff!

A fellow Nascar bubba at work said today (after I told him he needed to visit Nascar.com to see the VERY latest about Mayfield), "We need a Nascar soap opera show - "As the lug nut turns."

I'm assuming that this is not about still driving the #19 car, but about his contract bucks ?
