They probably had no idea who he was, but a ton of people know who the Wallace family is. And he gave a full description of their vehicle. This should be interesting. :munch:

Shopping for Coke Zero 400 tickets and two things cross my mind:
-There are still a ton of tickets for the Cup race two weeks out.
-:lol: ISC for charging the same price for tickets in the Middle and Upper sections of seats, you greedy fucks. Why not make the Middle seats a little less expensive/more commensurate with not being in the best seats at the track? (Conversely, people bought them at those prices in the 300s so :iiam:.)

quote:

Although Byron's family lived in the Charlotte, N.C., area and therefore had some understanding of racing, they had minimal grasp of the particulars and thus had little knowledge about what exactly a Legend car was. So the elder Byron used a familiar tack most parents employ when their children ask for something: Bill demurred, telling William to do some research then they would discuss the matter further.

William did precisely that, delivering to his dad a six-page paper 48 hours later. In it, William laid everything out, detailing what Legend cars were, how it was a great way to get started in motorsports and the location of tracks near them where he could compete.

Hornish wasn't even supposed to be in this race. Matt Tifft wasn't cleared to drive and they needed a driver.

Since his last race, Hornish has been substitute teaching for work. :stare:

If there's ever going to be another new track on the Cup schedule, this is probably it.

It'll never happen because it's A Good Track and we have to run Kansas twice a year.

i enjoy just about every track in the series (if i ever sit down and watch which is rare) except for martinsville. it's like watching two drag races one after the other that counts as one lap.

Went to the ARCA race today. It was fun, but nothing real special. The strangest part was the difference in pit crews. It was like half semi-pros and half people that had apparently never seen a car before. Very weird.

Yep. In other words, ~45 seats purchased in that section. It's better on the Turn 1 end, but there are still decent-to-large sized patches of open seats in a number of sections.

Even when attendance has dropped other places, Daytona has seemed to hold up well, but not this year. I don't know if the interest drop has finally impacted DIS or if people are turned away by the prices- even the NASCAR 3D Splash Zone which featured the Kyle Larson Meet 'n Greet a few years ago at the start/finish line has a couple seats left at $130 a piece.

Can't you just buy a costco sized M & M bag and a case of coke for $20? Consuming that much would be a challenge even for the best goon eaters. I am pretty sure you will go into diabetic coma anyway which if you are watching a race is a best case scenario.
