Things are so slow around here ...................

two tumble weeds would be considered a race. So I figured I'd throw out a thought I had a bit a go. Maybe throwing it out is what I should do. When looking at the possible drivers for the SST the category of NASCAR crawled up and there I see Steve Wallace (I don't know his history on dirt and don't care to go look) Kenny Wallace (That can't miss) and Ricky Stenhouse (a reported up and coming star I thought). No matter the age or updated version, it got me thinkin..........I wonder how many if any drivers from NASCAR might end up coming over and tryin this? Given the outside chance that sponsorship for next year is not to be found and for some lets face it........no matter how fun it must be crankin along at 190 MPH the situation to be a back marker might not be as enjoyable if there is a chance to go join this SHOW. Given a mans coffer is well padded and a career change is not much of a change other than travel arrangements that is. I ask simply a two part I guess: If a driver finds himself suddenly available to get out or be forced out of dodge would he (or she) be able to and have time to get a team on board. For the sake of saying sometime around Daytona crunch time?

Heard AJ might be looking for something like this.....

Would love to see him in the series. I think there is a small problem with NASCAR's drug testing program regarding results and acceptable parameters. I think AJ is getting the shaft over this incident. But this is purely my opinion. I cheer for AJ and Brad when Robby is not in the field.

Always have been a Dinger fan since he and PT were teamates in open wheel. I would like to know what substance he was tested positive for, I hope for the best for him, time will tell where he will end up. As for Nascar drivers in the SST, I would dought it, that said it has been quite around here recentley and hopefully Mr. Martinez will treat us to a rant in the near future

I for one am hoping that Robby runs the 22 at the Glen. I'd rather see him do well than struggle in his car. I'm not bashing, but as a fan, I'd love a chance at one more victory.

I echo this, but with Sam already at the glen & running the NW race the day before, I just don't think it will happen.

Echo.........what? Echo.....what? I love that movie and that chick is HOT......makeup don't even stick to her skin. SSSsHHH silence is golden I'm depressed enough about "Da Glen". And no there is nothing to rant about, what could I do make things up? Well there is that crazy chick from Greece or that outside chance the Buffalo Bills will make the playoffs...........at 35 to 1 I can think of a hundred reason to rant about that...now you did it.

Who knows, NASCAR gets all the TV air time, would love to see the series take off. Sucks that you can't get the off-road stuff out at sea. Ready for a change!!!!

OK Jeff, so if he's going for an entertainment event, do you see something like the celebrity race at the LBGP? Maybe get those two chicks that just quit as judges on American Idol?

Jeff, $40k to winner of "Entertainment Event"? $500k to winner of championship? I Agree the Monster truck part will be entertainment but BJ Baldwin, Justin Lofton, Rick Johnson etc don't drive for entertainment. All the guys who tested at Glen Helen are fierce racers. They will be going all-out to win.

I'm running a tough truck even tomorrow. At least some hillbilly racing going on
