“NASCAR RaceDay” Personalities to Race School Buses at LMS tonight: A School Bus battle of epic proportions will be waged Tuesday night during the final round of the 13th annual Summer Shootout Series on the frontstretch quarter-mile oval at Lowe’s Motor Speedway. Members of SPEED Channel’s “NASCAR RaceDay” crew, including Jimmy Spencer, John Roberts, Wendy Venturini and Rutledge Wood, are among those scheduled to wheel the behemoth creations in a winner-take-all slobberknocker that is sure to leave metal mangled and hearts broken. Prior to banging bumpers on the race track, the “NASCAR RaceDay” personalities will sign autographs on the grandstand concourse beginning at 6:15pm/et. A full slate of Legends Car, Bandolero and Thunder Roadster racing is also on tap and championships will be decided in each of the seven divisions. More info at lowesmotorspeedway.com.(PR)(8-8-2006)

Very nice thread this week NY!

Michigan next week and then BRISTOL Saturday night racing. [my thread] I can't believe NBC chooses to put that race on TNT. Shows how much they know about racing! Or maybe they don't care.

UPDATE 3: Bill Elliott is now listed as the driver of the #19 Evernham Motorsports Dodge for Watkins Glen per nascar.com's entry list, looks like Mayfield will sit the road course race out since the #19 is now out of the top-35 in owners points, Elliott running the #19 guarantee's the team will race at Watkins Glen since Elliott has the past champions provisional to use and none of the other non top-35 teams have a past champ in their cars.(8-8-2006)

Ya managed to bump that practice thread before I could get it deleted and then found this one.

You win a cookie!

SPARK PLUGS: Speed Channel reported Sunday that Mark Martin has been offered $8-million by either Ford or Roush Racing not to retire after this season as planned because of the upheaval within the manufacturer's program and the entry of Toyota in 2007. Robert Yates Racing is in disarray with Jarrett and Sadler leaving and the manufacturer wished not to rely on too many unproven younger drivers, the report said. Martin wanted to retire from full-time Cup competition after last season but returned after Kurt Busch's departure left Roush in a pinch
