I don’t see it making much difference myself - moving by a week that is.

I do know one thing for sure, there will be more spectators at the Brickyard 400 in Indy than the Super Bowl XLVI in Indy.

I had him in “C” I told people yesterday to pick him. Hope they did.

I didn’t miss the race, just couldn’t connect on the laptop.

A bit breezy down here, lost a tree next door right after the race ended. Just got it out of the driveway, will cut it up later.

Yes DW is an idiot but, Fox hasn’t figured it out yet or they are also idiots. He should have spent more time teaching his brother how to drive rather than mouth off in the booth.

Bayne’s win was amazing - I was screaming for Mr Ed not to wreck him!!

Jr said Dale Jr “We had a fast car & tried to do the best we could today but it came down to all the carnage out there. Too much carnage out there.”

I jumped when Smoke came over Jr’s radio asking to dance. LOL That was cool but, almost impossible to transcribe both drivers talking to each other during the race, too bad they couldn’t stay hooked up.

Off to a hell of a start.

Thanks tube, I watched it all - was transcribing Jr’s scanner - full time job today. I was worn out after, felt like I had raced the dang car myself.

I would rather listen to DW all day then Rusty and Brad D for 15 minutes. Jeremy is cool in the suit and tie and sounds like he has done his home work. One of the most under reported stories is the 4th place finish by Bobbie Labonte. I thought he was a couple of laps down...

Huhh?

You had Waltrip and Minard in "C".

I had the winner as my back-up as per your instructions. Shoulda, woulda, coulda, - but I didn't take your advise.

Fortunately, it's only one race of the season. My score sucks, yet it's twice what last year's Daytona was. I suppose that means I'm doomed, DOOMED this season. Sigh.

Right you are. Not bad, Tork.

This is my first 200+ Daytona score in three years. Tipping a glass of Oregon wine in your general direction now :o)

That was a great episode. Got it on DVD. Wonder if Tork took his nick from Bender??

Wonder how many blank stares this post will produce...
