Tomorrow, we head west and a tad north towards Chicago. We’re visiting a college bud of mine, and his little bride.
Whilst there, we’re planning on attending the first night Nextel Sprint Cup race at Chicagoland Speedway.
Like every trip, getting the electronics and spare batteries packed is always the biggest challenge. That’s done, [...]
Not that I’d know, seeing that I don’t have a sister. I hate to see rain-shortened NASCAR races, especially when the eventual winner had zero chance to win if it weren’t for the rain. Such was the case today, as Kurt Busch was crowned the winner of the LENOX Industrial Tools 301 at [...]
In July. Destination: Chicago, to get together with a college compadre. And to hear the roar of powerful engines here.
Can’t wait!

Even an Al Bundy vacation doesn’t deter me from posting The DirecTV HotPass Lineup for tonight’s under the lights running of the Subway Fresh Fit 500 from Phoenix. And a cut and paste from Jayski later, we have:

790 - Martin Truex JR, #1
791 - Dale Earnhardt JR, #88
792 - Jimmie Johnson, #48

Looks like channel 791 is all Earnhardt, all the time. The green flies in about 2 hours, [...]
Earnhardt Jr. earns pole for Sunday’s Texas Cup race
I guess the switch to Hendrick Motorsports is a good thing for Junior. It’s not bad on his fans, either; those who had a #8 tattoo need merely to juxtapose another 8, and they’re back in the game.

Dale Jarrett, legendary second-generation driver in NASCAR’s flagship Sprint Cup Series, makes his last start in a Cup points race today.
I like Dale, his dad, and his whole family. They are all gentlemen in a rough-and-tumble world. He came up the old school way, wrenching and driving his own late model [...]
The DirecTV NASCAR HotPass Lineup for today’s running of the Food City 500 from high-banked Bristol Motor Speedway is as follows:

No rain showing up in my weather data for Bristol. Even if the skies open down there, today [...]
I knew it was gonna happen, and today it did. There’s a Toyota in victory lane, following the NASCAR race in Atlanta. The good news is that Joe Gibbs Racing has the historic honor of delivering Toyota’s their first Cup triumph.
I’ll admit that I used to say “The day you see Old Ironhead [...]
