    LOL, I thought I'd keep it clean for a change, and since this is a Nascar thread that I'd post a photo of Danica in her uniform... :lol:

    My Drive Shaft her Rear End, I would turn left all day long..

    yep bout time they get rain tires and rain-x the windshields... they should race rain or shine heck if the open wheelers open cockpit can do it then the guys with a roof should be able to do it..... who cares that speeds will be slow that don't stop folks from watching the 1/2 mile tracks with a blazing top speed of 85mph.

    I've been a Tony Stewart fan since back in his USAC days and am hoping to see Danica compete for a top 15. Anybody but the Busch brothers will be ok. Would love to see Marcos in the #9 win for another great upset. Last I heard it's put off till 7pm east time but haven't checked the weather today. Hoping to go to the spring Bristol races again this year, any Polkies coming to Bristol?

    I wouldn't mind a Danica win as I put 5 bux on her at 35-1.
    If Junior can keep out the wrecks he has a pretty good chance.

    Well, .... crap. :cry:

    ouch.jpg



    So, Elliott Sadler rides up Jimmie Johnson's rear end, blows him into the wall, he bounces off, goes airborne, and sends Danica to the pits.

    Nice driving, Sadler; first time behind the wheel ?

    Lap one.
    I think Sadler was just a little too excited.

    Leave it to Montoya to not even think about walking towards the truck he just slammed into, to assist the guy. In case you haven't noticed, I don't like Montoya, or his "self-serving, it's everyone elses fault" personality.
