Remember when Glock gave out the trophies for the league?

Paper plates with Happy Faces glued on them...

Well, here we are again - at the end.

I can say I’m looking forward to the banquet and MPD luncheon and before you know it they will be in Daytona!! :)

I’m giving Steve & HMS 3 months to get those 88 cars in order.

Nascar secretly fined Brad Keselowski for bashing the EFI engines on Twitter.

“Cars on the street are injected with real electronics, not a throttle body (like in NASCAR). So we’ve managed to go from 50-year-old technology to 35-year-old technology. I don’t see what the big deal is.”

NASCAR has called the move to electronic fuel injection part of its green initiative and said engines should run more efficiently by controlling the fuel mixture through electronics.

Keselowski is right. NASCAR is PC.

Stewart never let up. He talked about how sponsor Office Depot served roast duck at a luncheon this week in honor of him beating Edwards, who is sponsored by Aflac (think TV commercials).

Tony Stewart stirs the pot in Miami

ROFL. Go Tony. Make him earn it.

If my 32 valve V8 Toy engine would mount directly to a Chevy tranny for rear drive, like they do at Nascar, I’d buy another Malibu to rebuild... then it’s mortgage the s***house and grab yer socks grannie, we’re goin to Bonneville for blue slips!

Forty seven days! I am becoming embarrassed for my fellow members.

The Nascar gang has a very high percentage of dollar-a-day donors, monthlies, and cash donors. Thank you, each and every one! We're keeping the lights on.


A republic, if you can keep it.

BTW, your tagline is excellent, to wit: Obama is an instrument of enslavement

If I may paraphrase: Zero's a tool.

Excellent layout. And thank you for doing it.

You are welcome. My Nascar threads have been the same format for all the years I've been doing race threads, and I'll continue posting them as long as Norm does. The thread posts used to go above a thousand, and thread hits in the high thousands... but when they stall out at a few hundred, either folks have lost interest, which is likely, or the races are only on pay cable stations like ESPN, and it just isn't worth paying $80/mo to have SPEED, ESPN2, ESPN, TBS, etc... and I understand. Really.

Maybe this is my last year doing this. I'm sick of paying the satellite bill when I can see all I want to see on Netflix and Hulu for $16/mo. Dunno.

I don't mind posting the threads, because it's something I find easy and fun... and I get to keep my bouncer skills sharp :o)

"Maybe this is my last year doing this."

None of us want to hear that.

Most of us can't do what you guys do.
But it is appreciated.>
Heck, with you guys and your information you actually make me sound like I know what I am talking about at my watering hole and the Legion.

For years I was a racing knowledge idiot. Now I am dangerous.

That thing would get high centered on the Roundy Boughts over there. On the other hand she could just get high just passing through Union Towne... Busted
