Flash was tops when I went out and I come back to discover I have lost a spot and the race hasn’t started yet!

The National Anthem was a 22 by some little cutie and the flyover was a DC3 Globemaster at the Truck races...

I have it on good authority that he will blow up his motor in the first 10 laps Sunday but don't tell anyone else as I want them to get burned for points. Scots Honor...

Thanks, I need all the help I can get because I didn't change my drivers this week. LOL JB just said his back tar was not going to make full fuel run.

I'm actually looking forward to this week's race. It's alternately titled the “Autism Speaks 400”

My oldest daughter was recently diagnosed as autistic.

She doesn't speak, safe for guttural grunts and high-pitched squeals. She ‘sings’ every one in a while, which is pretty in it's own way. She isn't potty-trained, can ‘sort-of’ feed herself, and enjoys putting everything...and I mean EVERYTHING...in her mouth.

Did I mention she once chewed a hole in her bedroom wall?

Three times in the last year, she managed to get her pants off and smear poop all over her room. Daddy gets to clean it up. It ain't no fun.

Still, she's a little love-ball who will give me kisses (in her own way) and hugs, when she's in the mood.

This race represents my daughter and a whole mess of other people's sons and daughters who are autistic. Also, this race represents the parents and care-givers of these kids.

Enjoy the race, but just remember these special ones that the folks at NASCAR are racing for this weekend. We now return you to your regularly-scheduled race thread.

My wife wants to know why the sun is still shinning on the Truck Race in Dover at 9:30 pm?

I know it’s been a long week, actually two, but I hadn’t noticed that. that’s just plumb sad.

Tell her good catch!

I'll keep you and your family, especially your daughter, in my prayers. We didn't know what road we'd take when we signed up to be parents, but we can only do our best. Hang in there dad. You're doing great!

He oiled the track real good before they finally threw the yeller.

They need to have a rule about oil downs like the NHRA.

Thanks for sharing with us. It must be quite a labor of love.

I'm glad that NASCAR takes the time to help out as it can.

I can speak for the pit-crew here in wishing your daughter our sincerest hopes for a wonderful life and for your enduring patience. You are quite the Dad!

I cheated and looked who won too. Then the rest of the race was anticlimactic. DUH

Qualifying on ESPN2 for the Nationwide boys.

So far, Flipper leads the pack.

I would really really like to come out and play but my keepers have me locked in the broom closet until 2:00pm...

Hmmm....

Got up early today. Busted my tail to get *way* too much yard work done by start time... and now I continue to wait through the rain delay.

Happily, I did about a days work in about 1/2 day and can now just enjoy my snacks.

Anybody got a clue when they might start?
