That's one way to get more tv time...

Hitting the wall is a hell of a way to adjust the car! Any word on how much damage?

Didn't look like that hard of a hit, just a scrub. He did get the thing dialed in a bit better from the earlier session.

I just hope he can pick up some speed some where for the race. What gets me though is why sometimes he has good runs and then sometimes he is just slow at Charlotte, I guess he can never reuse his notes from the previous year since he is always changing manufacturers! I think if he can make it to the second part of the race without being lapped, I think his car will come to him since he normally runs better in the night time there if I remember correctly, but I guess time will tell.

I am going to be away from a computer, tv, and radio for the 1st half of the race. I will have my phone to check the message boards, so if someone thinks about it please throw an update on every once in awhile. GAS ON!

Okay, first update, before the start - it's raining.

Shit... I looks like a loooong night. It is almost 6:30 and they need a couple of hours to dry the track. The doppler radar is showing rain cells all over the southeast and more popping up everywhere. My guess if NASCAR can't get the track dry by 8pm, we will have the race tomorrow. Anyone have a guess as to what time and TV channel?
