As I watch the Busch Nationwide cars attempt to race in Montreal in the rain, I wonder: Why?
NASCAR is its own brand, its own breed. Wise up, we don’t race in the freaking rain. Period.
I guess that with the dollar being what it is, NASCAR wants to ring up cash registers elsewhere. [...]
As the NASCAR Brickyard race rolls on with the constant talk of tires, I firmly support the return of competition in the NASCAR tire wars.
Hoosier. Firestone. Goodrich. Whomever.
Give us a choice. For fans. For team owners. For the sport.

Since we’re not driving home after the road trip that didn’t happen, I’m enjoying the NASCAR race from the Brickyard on the tbbs WorldHQ teevee.
Silver linings, etc…

Tomorrow, we head west and a tad north towards Chicago. We’re visiting a college bud of mine, and his little bride.
Whilst there, we’re planning on attending the first night Nextel Sprint Cup race at Chicagoland Speedway.
Like every trip, getting the electronics and spare batteries packed is always the biggest challenge. That’s done, [...]
Not that I’d know, seeing that I don’t have a sister. I hate to see rain-shortened NASCAR races, especially when the eventual winner had zero chance to win if it weren’t for the rain. Such was the case today, as Kurt Busch was crowned the winner of the LENOX Industrial Tools 301 at [...]
In July. Destination: Chicago, to get together with a college compadre. And to hear the roar of powerful engines here.
Can’t wait!

Even an Al Bundy vacation doesn’t deter me from posting The DirecTV HotPass Lineup for tonight’s under the lights running of the Subway Fresh Fit 500 from Phoenix. And a cut and paste from Jayski later, we have:
Phoenix International Raceway scheduled drivers
(DIRECTV channel, car#, driver)
SD (standard definition) Channels
790, #18-Kyle Busch
791, #88-Dale Earnhardt Jr
792, #07-Clint Bowyer
793, [...]
For today’s running of the Samsung 500 from the Texas Motorplex, the DirecTV HotPass lineup looks like the following:
790 - Martin Truex JR, #1
791 - Dale Earnhardt JR, #88
792 - Jimmie Johnson, #48
793 - Tony Stewart, #20
Looks like channel 791 is all Earnhardt, all the time. The green flies in about 2 hours, [...]
Earnhardt Jr. earns pole for Sunday’s Texas Cup race
I guess the switch to Hendrick Motorsports is a good thing for Junior. It’s not bad on his fans, either; those who had a #8 tattoo need merely to juxtapose another 8, and they’re back in the game.
