Join us for the Chicagoland Speedway's 10-Year Anniversary and the first of the 10 races to determine the 2011 Chase Cup Champion..
12 drivers have a chance to GIT R DONE! See ya there!
That’s a very good thing. Let’s hope it knows when to stop.
I noted to the missus that one bad race will most likely doom a driver’s desires to become champion. I can think of one I’d like to see knocked out.

How in the world did we miss this thread from back in July... http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2744076/posts
We had a week of cool nights (60s), after a summer of 110 daytime temps, that is plumb chilly.
How in the world did we miss this thread from back in July.
Too much cervezas and bbq smoke ? or a little too much Slo Mo Red sipping?
The drive for the perfect grill is strong.

Gordon calls Menard’s radio chatter ‘a little fishy’
Drivers use Chase Media Day to revisit, speculate on late-race caution at RIR

CHICAGO — What would the Chase for the Sprint Cup be without a little controversy at the outset to spice it up?
That occurred Thursday when, during the Chase Media Day events at downtown Chicago restaurant, Jeff Gordon wondered aloud if the late-race caution caused when driver Paul Menard spun his No. 27 Chevrolet last Saturday night at Richmond was intentional.
Menard’s spin with 17 laps to go in the Wonderful Pistachios 400 came while Gordon was in the lead, with Menard’s teammate at Richard Childress Racing, Kevin Harvick, in hot pursuit. Harvick subsequently beat Gordon off pit road and went on to win the race, while Gordon had to settle for a third-place finish behind Harvick and second-place finisher Carl Edwards.
“
He might have just lost it off of Turn 4 and the caution came out.

Sitting from my seat, it looks like everybody is spinning everybody out just to keep Dale Jr. on the lead lap. We could just go on and on with this battle all day long.

“Here’s what I am going to say about it: You do whatever you can as a team to win, win races, win championships, and if any of that is true of what’s being speculated right now, all I have can say is I’ve lost a lot of respect for Paul Menard if that’s the case. But I don’t want to blame him for any of that if it’s not true,” Gordon said.”
“He might have just lost it off of Turn 4 and the caution came out. But when you listen to the radio, and I’ve had other people translate it to me, it sounds a little fishy.”
On the audio channel able to be monitored by fans, media and even other teams, Menard’s spotter, Stevie Reeves, came on with 23 laps to go and began giving Menard detailed updates on where the cars of Gordon and Harvick were as they battled for position on the track.
With 22 to go, RCR competition director Mike Dillon came on the radio and asked Menard’s crew chief, Slugger Labbe, to switch the radio “to Channel 2” which was not able to be monitored by the masses.
Rumbles in the ranks. LOL
Showers are gone for the time being, hopefully they will return, even though I have 80’ of ditch open in my backyard.
I would think you’d just walk down to their pit if you wanted to talk about deliberately causing a caution.
Same way you didn’t know you recorded yourself and your lovely wife (hope it was yours...) and uploaded it to Y’all tube...
Damn grandson strikes again...

Did you really do that bird? If so, outstanding.
Yep. That chicken does look proud of himself, eh?
Nice bird Vex. We will be living out of cardboard boxes for the next 12 to 14 days as we are having our hardwood floors refinished in the nerve center of the house. Kitchen, dining room and parlor and we think we are going to exist in the back half and if not we can flee somewhere.
Give me some good quality Karistan any day. Swipe, wipe and vacuum.
The original finish lasted 30 years and we would have replaced carpet 3 times at least due to our lifestyle. This is real hardwood and not the laminate type that is so popular today. We know people who have carpeted over their hardwood rather than put up with the mess of refinishing...
