Awesome on the suite seats!

I hope you and son have a great time! Turn 1...cool.

Like TB says in the post below, enjoy the time. My boy is 13...and it's just going too quick!

Just a fyi thing, I've been going to LVMS for 6 years now - had suite tickets once, given to us by a neighbor. Truck race, me and the boy.

The free food (the boy pigged out on the wings and designer chocolate cookies, they even gave him some to go!) and the free brewski's were great...but something was missing!

Sound. The view was great and all that...but I could not hear 'em!

The gift from above was....the roof.

Way awesome!!! Holy cow!! Team spotters just to the left of us...what a view!

It was still a bit warm out so when it was time to cool off, back downstairs to da 'sweet' !! Just an awesome time!

So at least ask if you can get to the roof, a very different perspective on things.

WCG, at least one Jr fan showed up for this truck race - pic #3. lol

Some pics from da 'sweet' - and roof!... 2005 Sept NCTS......

Getting ready to swap paint - from the roof

The boy...from the suite.

On the roof of the suite. Nice! Don't know who the kid is. :)

A great night, to be sure.

Like I said, the suite was nice but it was lacking in one key area - I can't hear 'em.

And I am one of those that needs to hear - and feel - the thunder!

I hope you guys have a great one!

Take some pics, ok?

Love the pics.

Tell that Jr fan to get his mojo working. :) I’ve stuck every pin in KB I could find and it’s not working. Unfortunately now we would have to stick Kevin and I can’t do that, so we will just root for wins now and not the Chase.

I heard Jr and TJ are going bow hunting in Texas.....too bad it’s such a big state and he’s blocked his tail#.

I’m surprised no one had any input on TJ going to HMS with Jr and Casey switching to the 5 with Kelloggs. We’re thinking the Nat’l Guard may be PT on the 81....which means we would have two of the armed forces supporting our teams.:)

But not once has Earnhardt compromised his integrity. Not once has he let his lame-duck situation be an excuse.

And if he doesn’t make the Chase, which he’s all but resigned to, he’ll focus on the positives.

“There’s a lot of pressure that won’t be on me for 10 races,’’ he said. “There’s other things I’ll be able to do as far as appearances and things. I’ll also be able to look a little more harder into the future in preparing for next year and doing the switch with the teams and moving over.’’

Asked if he might help his future teammate get into the Chase, four-time Cup champion Jeff Gordon laughed.

“If he asks nicely, I’m sure we can arrange something,’’ he said. “Those are all things that happen as the race unfolds. Obviously, both me and Jimmie [Johnson] are trying to get bonus points and get the best position. That’s our agenda.

“If we can’t accomplish that and there’s something we can do to help Junior get in ... he’s a great asset to the Chase and the sport.’’

Kvapil to the #88? Restucturing at Yates: Robert Yates Racing is expected to announce a management structure change Friday night that, according to multiple sources close to the situation, will include team owner Robert Yates’ retirement. Those same sources say that Travis Kvapil, current driver of Roush Fenway Racing’s #6 Ford in the Craftsman Truck Series, will replace Ricky Rudd in the #88 Ford for the 2008 Sprint Cup season. Sources said Doug Yates, Robert’s son and the president of the team, will assume the ownership role and preside over the company. Sources also said that Roush Fenway Racing will provide full support to Yates, including licensing, marketing and engineering. It was unknown how this might affect the recently-announced partnership between open wheel team Newman/Haas/Lannigan Racing and Yates. Robert Yates has been a Cup Series owner since 1989. During that time he has established himself as the premier engine builder at NASCAR’s highest level and has collected 57 victories.(ESPN.com)(9-7-2007)
