[Pauli]

I don't have a 48 car, I will have to see if I can find one.. or make one. This is what I do have... I also have some #8, but I don't think anyone is gonna want that one now... I have a #31 and a few others I think.

Died in a wool die hard Bobby Labonte fan, 18/ 43. Hope he proves himself for the King next year.
Ran a red and blue number 43 car in an endero 200 lap Race and placed third at Hagerstown Maryland.
What a blast, talk about getting out all your aggression towards other drivers on the highway in a controlled environment.
We set up the horn button as the electronic down shift from third to second gear, really neat, coming out of the fourth turn and not having to lift, just dropping down in the second gear and launching passed all of the G. body Chevrolet Monte Carlo’s with a 1968 four door Buick Electra 225

Sounds like a road trip to me! You and I may become Buds afterall! Back in the day, I had a '65 Must'n-Touch, running a 302, (blew three 289's) down shifted from 4th to 3rd, touchy 'lil boitch she was, hit 1st instead of 3rd, I swear we went head over hills! Still have that dang ol' Ford, becept the rear gears are shot to he!!. Got me a '90 5.0 GT tho, hubby don't let me take her too far! And I sit and wonder why? hee-hee

[look4u]

Got the wife a 2003 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS, Red, Black Leather, the only thing you didn’t come with was Dale Earnhardt Junior. Two more months and the warranty is up with the last payment. Only has 16,000 miles, time to change the chip. Garage kept

But my pride and joy is a 1968 F. 100 on a F. 250 frame with a built 4 barrel, 390 cubic, frame off restoration , primer paint sleeper . Shiny pain don't make it go faster .

(Not as long as the Captain is with you!)


Well Dang! He's been gone almost 10 years! Ooops, never mind! You mean the Captain! :basic45: Nah, he's a 'lil bit more strict than what I'm use to! That dang bottle is still sitting on my bar since X-Mas Eve! Gonna be a special occasion, maybe April 4, GO ROCKIES, altho April 16 is me burfday! :girl_haha:

[Pauli]

I know a lot of people don't like Michael Waltrip, but I'm so glad to see him having a better start this year.. I have known Mikey and DW for a long time and Mikey is really a super super person.

Hey you! I like Waltrip, I think he deserves everything he gets! In a nice way, that is. Actually, I think he's pretty handsome, he just needs to knock the accent! :girl_haha:

How about getting the Captain out next Sunday....after the race???

Or maybe we'll go to Lowe's on Monday?

Very happy for him to be on the front row and I could tell DW was also!

Will never forget his Daytona 500 victory in 2001...
that he didn't get to celebrate.

Dang, have no clue where that last reply went too! ruh-roh! will try again....

We could possibly make it SaturDAY! After the race Sunday would be fine by me! But then again, let me check my calendar real quick :a1chic::a1chic:

Either before or after the race looks ok, my calendar is clear for Monday! Imagine that! Shall I pick you up or would you prefer to pick me up! I figure either way, if one or the other of us leave Thursday after the Duel, we can BE THERE! :zm10:

Amen, I'm not a particular Michael Waltrip fan, I tend to root for the guys who came out of open wheel series, but I'd kind of like to see Michael get to celebrate a Daytona 500. Goodness knows I never rooted for Dale but I do miss him. It was so much fun teasing the Earnhardt fans, and they took it in good humor, and gave as good as they got. I miss the way Nascar was before it got too corporate and everyone started worrying too much about what the sponsors would think. I wonder if Dale, King Richard or many of the old timers would make it in the modern era. They were honest, said what they thought, and were willing to settle it in the pits if they thought they were wronged on the track. I must be getting old but I do miss the good old days.

Please, do not ever call yourself "old", you are "well seasoned"! :zm10:

[Pauli]

I was so different years ago janicelee.. I grew up around racing, my brother.. several nephews, my ex.. he was a top dirt track and ASA driver.. my in-laws live right next door to the Petty's and are good friends. We will never see those days again with all of Corporate America getting into the game.

I was told that NASCAR was going to lighten up on what the driver's say and do in the pit/garage areas now.. but you will never see the way driver's used to get so fired up.. before, it used to be a way of life.. a love, an obsession.. now to many of them it's a job.. it's pressure to be in the top 35 and if you are out race after race you are out of racing and looking for another job.

Agreed, that's why I tend to follow the dirt track racers. World Of Outlaws, USAC, Saturday night dirt track racers. I saw Tony Stewart, Jeff Gordon and company on midwestern dirt tracks before they were famous. I remember going to Indy Car races where the night before the race you could run into the drivers at the local bar, and they'd be happy to talk to you. I don't mean to be critiical of the NASCAR drivers of today, they are incredible athletes but I do miss the fun of the old days.

We went to the two Dover races every year & never had a problem meeting drivers & tiping the elbow.
Sorry to say those guys are long gone & to my knowledge its a thing of the past,oh Dick Trickle,Dave Marcus,Jimmy Spencer & yes Dale Ernheart ,thanks for the memories:zm10:

The spirit still lives on in local tracks, every weekend. Last year I took one of my nephews to a local race track and after the racing ended took him into the pits. The drivers were amazing. Every one of them had time to talk to my nephew sign autographs, and several of them even let my nephew sit in their race cars. Admittedly most of these guys will never be on national television, and will never be known to anyone except those of us who frequent the local track but they are and will remain heroes to my nephew and to me.

Isn't that the truth, Lawrenceburg Speedway, just across the state line in Indiana, is my local track. Alot of big names have passed throught there over the years, but the the cars are mostly sponsored by the neighborhood bar, and the local NAPA. It is as good as racing gets and still affordable enought for me to take my nieces and nephews and make a night of it.

Busch, Stewart Handed 6-Race Probation

Both Bush & Stewart one day will get someone killed on the track.The two of them are hot heads & NASCAR got to straighten them out.

I personally do not believe it is so much SMOKE, for goodness sakes, he has been racing longer than Kurt. Watch it again. What happened on the track was an "accident", what happend on the pit was not an "accident". Too bad Kurt is giving Kyle a "bad name"... All I gotta say is...

GO JJ, go JR, go RW! :zm10:

Hey Toby!!! I am wondering if they will get it in tonight or put it off till tommorow morn, or whenever. The rain looks to be there to stay!! And I wanted to see how Brad handled being back at the track where he has such a horrific wreck last season!! waited all day for that one. :(

And too, Dale Jr. is driving # 5 again tonight. LOL

I saw that forecast. It doesn't look promising. We may end with two races tomorrow. One thing for sure, if they do race then they need to battle for top ten positions before they hit that halfway mark. If it gets rained out after that, it's set.

You're right about that...it'll be a scramble for the front if rain threatens to shorten the Cup race, assuming they get in underway to begin with! Coverage is supposed to begin on FOX at 3:30pm ET.

I'm watching the coverage on Speed and it looks gloomy at the track. :(

Well, it's raining here in central California again so I'm sitting here laughing at them wasting valuable time down there in Fontana....should've gotten the race underway while the sun was out!

:happy0207: How far are you from the track? I know here, son lives about 23 miles away, can be snowing like hell at his place, but drier than a bone here, or sometimes visa-versa. Well, actually, never "dry" here! :zm10: I like the "Dress For Success" thing that Cousin Carl is doing. It's a good song also, by the Roxettes!
