Sonoma. Wine country. 80 degrees.
Race #16 plays out on a road course.
It's anybody's race, come along for the ride but try and stay out of the gravel pits.
Thanks to our Armed Forces members, past and present.

Yarborough, Pearson to be at Darlington track festival - Sept. 26-27
DARLINGTON, S.C. — NASCAR legends and South Carolina natives Cale Yarborough and David Pearson, along with longtime promoter H.A. Humpy Wheeler, will be the featured guests at the Darlington Historic Racing Festival Sept. 26-27, announced Darlington Raceway president, Chris Browning.
Yarborough, Pearson and Wheeler will each participate in a fan forum question and answer session as well as an autograph session.
“Cale, David and Humpy have all done so much for our sport,” Browning said. “Having them at the second annual Darlington Historic Racing Festival will be a real treat for the fans and entrants at the event.”
“I’m looking forward to being back at my home track, Darlington Raceway,” Yarborough said. “I enjoyed my time there in May for the Southern 500 and I’m looking forward to being there for the Darlington Historic Racing Festival in September.”
Yarborough and Pearson each have a storied history at Darlington. Pearson holds the all-time wins record at the 1.366-mile egg-shaped oval with 10 career victories. Yarborough also has his name in the record books at Darlington with the most wins in the famed Southern 500 with five, a record that was later tied by Jeff Gordon.
Wheeler, former president and general manager at Lowe’s Motor Speedway, is widely regarded as one of the best promoters in the history of NASCAR. Wheeler stepped down from his post at LMS in 2008 and shortly after formed The Wheeler Company, a management consulting operation primarily focusing on professional sports, motorsports and general business.
Other legends appearing at the Darlington Historic Racing Festival will be announced at a later date.

Great job! She doesn’t suspect a thing. I did have to do a little creative story telling to explain all the left over okra - she knows I hate that stuff.
