I like when they change things up by running the road course at Watkins Glen. It seems those NASCAR guys do know how to turn right, after all.

Hahah. Speaking of that. I saw a pickup on friday that had new tires on the left side and old on the right. "All four new tires?" "Nah. Just change out the left side.". Bawhahaha.

28 days to Formula One.

A Nascar question... What Chevy parts are on a 'Chevy' Nascar? Same for Ford and whomever. I am not being a wise-***, I just can't figure out what car is which, and if a team builds a car, what makes it a Ford or Toyota or what.

Now a WRC question...Is any of this on TV this year, I haven't seen it in a while.

Wow...yeah, I haven't dozed off through a restricter-plate race for a while...those cars are much different than they used to be. I'm glad to not see a bunch of perpendicularity--it must be the wings that are keeping more control in the hands of the driver when they get 'out of line'. It used to be, wham, into the wall then shoot like a billiard ball back across the track and into traffic. Scary. I don't think I saw it happen once today.

One good thing about Daytona, motorsports season is on!


+2 on ALMS. It's nice that they now come into town every year to a great track--hope to see you guys there at Miller Motorsports Park...woot!



I forgot, damn, Tony Stewart's been hittin' the buffalo wings a little hard, I guess, he used to be slim enough to fit in an open-wheel race car--now he looks like every other good ol' boy out there...way to go Tony.

Jeff Burton's wife is hawt...
