I know I'm quite partial to coming home to my air conditioned house and sitting down to get my news from the net, which I had neither of 30 years ago.
Then from another perspective, the more things change, the more they remain the same. ;)
Bump for qualifying coming up.
BTTT
After about 30, Blaney’s on the pole, 29.426
Rubberhead to 2nd, 29.484
thanks, still at work.

Speed Channel has introduced a way to get me to not fast forward through commercials.
Thanks for the pic...........check this out.....
NOTE: The No. 83 Red Bull Camry had earned the 28th starting position for Sunday’s race, but following post-qualifying inspection, the left-front of the car was deemed too low by NASCAR and therefore the qualifying time was disallowed. Can you comment on having your qualifying time disallowed?
“All the non-top-35 cars roll back through inspection following qualifying and when we did, we didn’t meet the heights on the sticks. We had several opportunities to roll back through, check air pressure and things like that. For the most part, they let us do just about everything other than put gas back in the car and we were still short on the left-front of the car. The problem being that I don’t ever know when something might break in the car in reference to any small part. I don’t have a marriage to any of the parts in the front of that car to know exactly when something might break in a freak situation. When we went through inspection and the car was presented, it was correct. We never raised the hood and then when we went back through we were too low and now we’re being thrown out. So my team has to load up and head home and I really don’t have a solid reason as to why.”
What happened to the car that it was too low in post-qualifying inspection?
“Right now we just have to look at everything and figure out what happened. Did a spring collapse or really what happened? We just can’t find any reason. We were off by an eighth of an inch and the sad thing is that would not make any difference in the solid lap that Brian (Vickers) ran today. It’s unfortunate because this was a solid lap and we were solidly in the field with that lap. Now we have to go home and have no chance of gaining our way into the top-35 in points.”

Wow, talk about rigid!
Does this mean Wallmendinger gets in? Are they chaseing his hauler down the highway to get him back? LOL
What would that be?
Yeah like who’s gonna pay their gas and overtime to come back and regroup??? Nascar.........OH NOOOOO
Actually they’re sending the highway patrol after Chad Chaffins hauler, he’s next up.
The brunette spokesmodel.
LOL
But this situation poses a perplexing problem for NASCAR.
If the next driver up and their car have left the track, how can they inspect the car without knowing if it’s been modified?
Why isn’t Mark Martin driving this week? I just thought he sat out last week because he doesn’t like road courses.
Dang, I missed her!
