Big block dirt modifieds fitted with sail panel bodywork.

They really only run them in and around New York, they are basically a giant sprint car.

e- I usually have a few nights in the SASCAR Winter Heat thread every winter where I find some of the races and we watch them, if you ever want to jump in and see them.

I don't think being racist and xenophobic causes this type of situation, but I could be wrong.

Apparently they cancelled FanFest in downtown Las Vegas this year. I'm mainly posting this because I wrote better newspaper articles for my high school newspaper. Saying Junior has a bad headache is everything that's wrong with dealing with concussions, plus this guy writes like a hack.

There's a haint in the foothills of NC; the haint of the #3 chevy. The rich have formed a holy alliance to exorcise it but they'll never fucking catch him.


The sprint unlimited bud shootout is just gonna be called "the clash" this year. I'm OK with that.

Also lol at the former Daytona 500 pole sitters being eligible rule so Danica can get in.

I wonder what Hendrick will do with Alex Bowman. Enter the 5 for him since Kahne is ineligible?

That was very choppy at best and he has clearly been dying to get that Keselowski 'bringing out the yellow' joke since 2012 the way he went all out to crowbar it in. I don't know if I can agree with how the drivers are like really inaccessible either. I'm sure a lot has changed in 10 years but, back in 2007 I was surprised at how accessible drivers were when I went down to Charlotte for the 600. Autograph signings and poo poo popped up everywhere and I went to the dirt race on Friday night of that weekend and ran into both Carl Edwards and Clint Bowyer in the pit area all night long. You couldn't not run into Clint Bowyer, I felt like he was everywhere. But on the whole I felt the drivers were very accessible, again this was back in 2007. The only guys I never even got a whiff of were the big, big guys like Tony, Jr, Gordon, Jimmie, etc. If it weren't for TV cameras you wouldn't even know those guys were there. But even when we weren't seeing drivers around you'd hear other people like, oh man we just saw this person over here or that person at an autograph signing, etc., etc.

Jeff Gordon to run the Rolex 24 with Wayne Taylor Racing with social media king Jordan Taylor, Ricky Taylor, and Max Angelelli.

:getin:

I'd hoped this combination would happen again. Gordon ran the 24 in 2007 with WTR and finished 3rd with Wayne Taylor, Angelelli, and Jan Magnussen.
