I had not. I’m being the curve this year on keeping up with the news and who’s doing what to which and why.

I don’t even feel confident enough to taunt T.B. & S.T. about future standings in the league and if I can’t even razz them that shows you how far behind I am.... :)

One subject they didn't even talk about during the off season - rain.

I will admit, some tracks you could do it, others no because of high speed.

I was watching and then I wasn’t watching so I saw about half of them as I had to grill a fresh Ribeye steak from Costco. This was the first grilling of the year because the temps have dipped to 32 degrees a couple of days this new year...

"I had to grill a fresh Ribeye steak"

Hey tube, your had your priorities in the correct order with this lame showing. Not a good start with the stupidask Bud bottles with a number.

I realize this is an "exhibition" event. NASCAR can't even get that right anymore.

I think I understand the problem. Just too much sponsor intervention. What do I know, they are paying the bills.

I had the feeling they have neutered Kenny (giggles) Wallace or tuned down his vocal cords at least? I hope Jr gets a win for the pole starting position...

Longtime Indy speedway voice Tom Carnegie dies

INDIANAPOLIS (AP)—A.J. Foyt lost a friend Friday. The Indianapolis Motor Speedway lost an icon.

Tom Carnegie, the veteran broadcaster who was best-known to generations as the voice of the Indianapolis 500, died Friday at his Indianapolis home following an illness, according to former employer WRTV. He was 91.

It may never be the same at the track.

Thanks for the lineup. The draw was a little over the top for me. I hope Bud Wiser paid Nascar lots of money for the marathon commercial...

You’re most welcome.

Somehow Dish network shined on me and blessed me with Speed Channel so I get to watch the Duals live this year.
