Ohio is a fine place to live, lot of friendly people, and such IMO.

And Iowa Speedway owns.

That is almost 100% a joke about the NBA finals. What does that have to do with racing fans? I care very little about some random dude on satellite radio making a dumb fan joke about a totally different sport.

Half of it is the standard Midwestern small town and then you cross some invisible border and walk into a hipster's paradise, complete with strange cultural fusion restaurants and an entire store dedicated to selling "ironic" t-shirts and trinkets. It's trippy as hell, the very last thing you'd expect in a tiny Midwest town. The Mexican food owned though

I'd rather spend a day in Charlotte than Cleveland, and I'd probably prefer to visit both over NYC. Everyone's mileage may vary. If it makes you feel better, that producer was poo poo on for a good 15-20 minutes by Moody the two days I heard his show during the free trial, though it was probably a lame radio gimmick where he leans mercilessly on the producer for what he thinks is humorous.

Finally caught up on the race because ~work~ Is it stupid I'm just glad Truex won and a mid tier team crushed the opposition for once? gently caress that's awesome. edit: VikingSkull posted:unlike the aero era, I get a feeling that this race was a stinker because the 78 spanked everyone, instead of guys being unable to pass This. algebra testes fucked around with this message at 08:16 on Jun 4, 2016 |

I had a dream about SRA last night. Can this be the dream confession forum thread about our beloved goon racing driver? Anyway they were racing at some nondescript night track, SRA passing someone low (I have no idea who. Wasn't JWT unfortunately). SRA comes up into the guy and wrecks himself. After the race, everyone's having post-race interviews. Well, they're interviewing the guy SRA made contact with, and SRA comes storming into the frame like some possessed ape defending his territory. They get into a scuffle, and then SRA's crew guys are hauling him away (literally carrying him by the shoulders as if he only weighed as much as an infant). Unnamed racecar driver is pounding into his chest left and right, and SRA's just shaking his head with some smug expression like nope, you can't hurt me you dumb bitch. That's all. Carry on.

So my co worker gave me two tickets for tomorrow, 300 level seats in the Petty tower...and it's looking like it'll be rained out. Guess I'll call out of work on Monday.

NASCAR apparently wants to get the race in today, you know, so everyone at the track (or jammed on the roads leaving the track) will be stuck in severe weather later. Good plan.

For their purposes, it's always in NASCAR's best interest to get the race in on the right day, so that's not really surprising. I dunno if they'll pull it off today though.

since there's no racing have a list of the top 25 dirtiest dirt track drivers ever e- lmao quote:Lund claimed that Petty had taken a swing at him and he charged at the elder Petty, who was at the edge of the platform. “I kicked him in the rear end, and I mean he took off of there like a big damned bird,” said Lund. When Petty landed, he looked up at Lund, “Is that the way you fight?” “Hell no,” Lund said. “Stay there. I’m coming down.” He jumped off and later recalled, “commenced to knocking the poo poo out of him.” Seizure Meat fucked around with this message at 18:58 on Jun 5, 2016 |

If it is in their best interest, they should start having wet tires for when it is raining but not flooding. I also wish Fox's mic's captured more low range than they do. It would be nice if I could feel it during the crank it up. HFX fucked around with this message at 19:59 on Jun 5, 2016 |
