The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series returns to the high banks of Bristol Motor Speedway on Sunday, March 16, for the Food City 500. One Dale is in a new ride and another Dale is competing in his final season. The last two Sprint Cup races saw two first-time Bristol Cup Series winners, in Kyle Busch and Carl Edwards. Who'll take home that big ol' Bristol Food City 500 trophy this year?
The Food City 500 is part of a spectacular Bristol race weekend, which includes the Sharpie MINI 300 Nationwide Series race (March 15) as well as Pole Day (March 14).
LOL. unlock em on the way south!
And tonight’s challenger is the executive coffee taster and pastry glutton, Fred. He has chosen Iron Chef Tork. Let the battle begin!
Sick and wrong I say!
I went to a private Christian college, and I was required to take a creative writing class for the business major. Sorry if that tweaks yer delicate redneck sensitivities :o)
Hey, now there’s a thought! Ya know they make cars in Mexico and ship them north on trains. They can haul three (stacked)rows of 5-6 cars and go south EMPTY every day.....
No, no, non, mon ami.
Vous are sick and twisted, perverted and bent. Vous have spent too many hors bent over a keyboard, mon ami.
Don’t you even think about my delicate redneck sensitivities or I’ll get violent and break ballons!
LOL.
“ballons” is French for “dangle” but I’m sure you knew that :o)
Nevermind.
No, really :o)
Ask my brother how many bodies can be crammed in a boxcar and the door locked in the worst weather in Europe and hipped a couple of hundred miles...
Look at whats happening to us... no race for a week and we all start going... well... south.
I’m going to read the paper and I really doubt that this thread will still be up when I check in the morning...
OK, maybe it wasn’t such a good idea.
Well I'm calling it a day, BUT
I'll be back.....
Thank God that criminals are stupid.
The 30 days and 3 years probation was the plea deal. Makes ya almost wonder if these rocket surgeons walked away with the idea that it might be cheaper in the long run to pay for the tacos.
The taco vid is gone already, guess I should have stayed up later. LOL
Two words have been synonymous with Nashville Superspeedway the last three Nationwide Series seasons -- Carl Edwards.
The 29-year-old defending series champion has flat out owned the 1.33-mile concrete track in "Music City, USA" with a fourth, a fifth and three consecutive wins. Nashville is the only track Edwards has won more than one race in the series, and Nashville and New Hampshire are the only tracks he has finished in the top five in every Nationwide event he has run there. ***************************************************
Nashville will always hold a special place in the heart of Bowyer. He made his first ARCA RE/MAX Series start at the track back in 2003, finishing second. Lucky for him, Richard Childress just happened to be watching and was so impressed with Bowyer, he signed him to the team in November that same year.
"It's been a good racetrack for us and for me in particular," Bowyer said. "Nashville is kind of the reason why I got my job at RCR so it has been a special place for me since all of this started."
Doctor to DW: Try to be quiet

Fox TV analyst Darrell Waltrip, who lost his voice during last week’s race at Bristol, has been diagnosed with severely inflamed vocal cords and is under doctor’s orders to severely limit his speaking for the time being.
Waltrip, whose gravelly voice was almost painful to listen to during the Bristol telecast, saw Dr. Katherine Grant at the Vanderbilt Voice Clinic in Nashville, Tenn., on Wednesday. Grant, who has treated Charlie Daniels and other Nashville figures, basically told the irrepressible former Cup champion to keep quiet for a while.
“It took eight years, but I finally figured out a way to get more air time,” joked Waltrip’s Fox colleague and former crew chief Jeff Hammond.
Waltrip is expected to be back in the booth in time for the Martinsville race on March 30.
So I take it DW won’t be with us Saturday night?
DW may be black flagged but we still have RW on ESPN TOO now...
