Same here, but I'll be honest I can't look away whenever they are at Daytona/Talladega... they are nerve wracking races!

^The lead changes as much as in basketball on those tracks! :)

....SO Richmond in 2 weeks and I WILL be there both Fri & Sat night -- no "speed dating" at Richmond, it's every man for himself!

Very nice! Richmond is my favorite track to go watch a race at... so much action! I love a good short-track.

Look who is going to the 24 Hours of LeMans!:happydance:
Auto News - 24 Heures du Mans 2011 - NASCAR driver at Le Mans - LeMans.org

Haha, that's awesome! I didn't even know he did the 24 Hours of Dubai and the 24 Hours of Spa. I guess now that he's not running full time in Cup he can pretty much go around the world and race whatever he wants.

You know, Dale Earnhardt, Sr. was going to run Le Mans after he was finished with Cup. It's a damn shame he never got the chance because he was awesome in the Corvette C5-Rs at Daytona.

Wow, that is pretty neat -- Mikey will certainly bring some viewers to that race who don't normally watch it -- for whatever reason, Mikey has been a "so-so NASCAR racer, but always brings a huge following...........sort of like Dale Jr............<grin> (that comment won't win me many friends.......)

dad 04-18-2011 08:32 PM

He's one of my favorite drivers and LeMans is my most favorite race! Can't wait!

Sscottfitz 05-15-2011 11:46 AM

Dover!
 
Looks like the weather gods are smiling on Dover (at least so far)......looking forward to a great Sprint Cup race today!

Sscottfitz 05-15-2011 03:41 PM

Kudos to the #5...
 
....great call at the end, turned a 15th place into a 2nd! Should be a descent move in the points!

Bring on the All Star Race (best viewed on a laptop in the Fontana Village Resort Lodge)!!!!

I guess you never know ... I've seen plenty of races where the 4 tire pitstop guys raced right past the 2 tire guys in much less than 30 laps.

...Agreed -- was listening to Mark on the Scanner -- he wasn't sold on the final pit decision to take 2 until the end of the race -- Lance earned a great amount of credibility today with Mark.....
