It's the second year of Cup racing at Kentucky Speedway and time for many to saddle the horses, cinch 'em up and get their wagons rolling or kiss the Chase buh-bye.

The Kentucky GiDDyUP 400 race thread is up Ping!!
IMO we are getting ever closer to the day when there won't be races any more, just award the cup to whoever generates the most advertising minutes.
And Danica will alternate championships with Junior for the rest of our lives.
THX for da ping
Help!....I’ve fallen and can’t reach my mint julip!
Bumpity Up!
Well poor Matt has the personality of a novocaine shot.
But if he goes to Gibbs as rumored, his cool demeanor will be a good offset to the emotion of Busch and Hamlin.
I dearly hope they’ve fixed the parking lot egress problem.
There may still be some poor folks stuck in there from last year trying to get to I-71.
Which is probably why he and Mark Martin are my favorite drivers.
They just drive the damn cars and do it very well, no controversy, no antics, no showboating.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!! Tony !!!! #14
As you probably know, Roush is a physicist and mathematician. So his background and interest is technical. Even though he’s got a big operation in Detroit, he’s never really been personally enthusiastic about the business side.
I think they’ve struggled with sponsorships maybe more than some of the other big Nascar operations, although with the Obama Depression grinding on, everybody is beating the bushes for deals.
I’m excited for Stenhouse. He really got his big break when Tracy Hines got hurt and Tony Stewart put him in as replacement in the USAC cars and he was rookie of the year in both midget and sprint divisions.
Starting tomorrow night Thursday, June 28, the trucks race at 7:30 PM EDT on the Speed Channel
Friday Nationwide 7 PM EDT
Cup cars run on Saturday night at 6:30 PM EDT.
With the outdoor temperatures at 100 degrees the TV sounds like the best place to be.

LOL! - That problem exists at almost every track in the country. You just can’t dump that many people on the highways at once.
So what is this crap, they run stock cars and Sprint cars in the same race?
There oughta be a law.
Thanks for Da Ping Norm. Had a short visit with a couple derelicts headed home from Sears Point this after noon and one of the service writers at my favorite repair shop said her and her BF got free ViP passes and had a ball. Temps in the 70s?
Just did a google earth on Sparta KY, wow this place is in the middle of nowhere.
Derelicts? I thought we left all the whinieries in Sonoma. Now I admit this bod is snow-capped and has more scars and stitches then a batting practice baseball but that doesn’t mean I still can’t bring the heat...but I’d prefer it after my nap if thats OK. And you’re wallets in trouble as my missus said someum about having your missus do you know what and you-know-where. I will say that if a miracle happens and I win the league this year I’m going to set aside about 500K of the prize money and relocate to a town near you unless I can borrow another $500k and buy a shack in the scrub oak and golden hills of Sonoma. And I’d like to know who piled all this crap on my desk and planted all those weeds in my yard while we were gone.
I guess you have never been to Benderville speaking of in the middle of No-Where?
