Good luck to Robby

Robby Gordon hasn't had a top 10 finish in texas, but hes come close. In 2006 at the Dickie's 500, he was having a solid race when his
engine dropped a cylinder and failed.in 2005, he was inside the top-15 when he got loose off turn 2, spun around and slapped the wall.
Robby has proven he can run well, if he can seal the deal this time, it could be his time to shine.
Go Flash! 7 4ever!

Dissapointing Day

Robby Gordon finished 40th in the Goodys 500 today. His day got off to a good start, he stayed on track when eveeryone else pitted (except for Scott Speed) putting him in 2nd spot. but he quikly fell back to 14th and, before long, he cut a tire and spun his toyota in the same exact spot he spun at in 2004. he came in for fresh rubber and, fuel losing a lap in the process. he went back on track fighting for the lucky dog when, he lost a right front tire and collided with David Ragen. gordon went… Read More

Smell the Thunder

Another race and another week of pure domination by Kyle. Just brilliant don't you think. In the same way that Schumacher stunk up F1 in the early part of the decade, Kyle has taken the fight to the rest of the grid in a way that has not been seen in Cup in a very long time. Perhaps it ruins the show a bit, but you can't help but envy the talent.

I was fortunate to scrounge up some passes for the race, so I was able to be at Bristol live and in person. I had never seen a race there… Read More

Paul Menard out of top 35

Its a shame to see Paul out of the top 35 in owner points . Mr. Menard does and has always done so much for Robby and RGM. Last year Paul was no where near the owners points bubble. I truly thought he would have a breakout year in 09 driving Roush equipment. If this does not turn around by Daytona in July I wonder if Paul and Mr. Menard do not start to consider the RGM Menards Camry for 2010.

Je No Se Corned Beef

Traditions have a way of bringing people together. Especially when there is good food involved. Tuesday was St. Patrick’s day, and I busted out the crock pots and cooked my 4th annual corned beef and cabbage dinner. Sprinkle in some good friends, a bit of Guiness, and the train wrecks on American Idol and good times were had by all. I accidentally had a 5 Guys bacon cheese burger for lunch, so I was meat and potatoed out by the end of the day, but it was a good hurt. The amout that I write… Read More

Rock, Scissors, Paperclip

It's the off weekend for all three of the top NASCAR series, and we have a chance to take a deep breath before the tulips come up and the circuit starts making its spring stops. Atlanta turned out to be a bit of a bust after the 47 crew members goofed and put 3/4 of the field a lap down before the first 200 miles of the race was completed, so I think we are all ready for Bristol, which is never boring.

Obviously the off week is not really any break for the teams. They still have 32… Read More

Doing Donuts

I had a little bit of a battle with a bag of donuts this week. Yes, a bag of donuts. My partner's family was visiting my place over the weekend of the Daytona 500. Her dad was really excited about getting a Krispy Kreme donut, so he went out and bought a dozen of them. Well...He ate 2 of them, and for some reason he put the other 10 in my freezer. I didn't realize this until last Sunday when I saw a gallon bag of donuts while I was grabbing some girlscout cookie ice cream. Since the credit… Read More

Full of It

Vegas was always a cool place to go. It was one of 2 tracks on the circuit where the city seeminly could not care less that the cup race is in town. The other being Sonoma. It always felt like more of a vaction when you went to a place that did not live for the cup race like places like Talladega and Bristol. The one thing you have got to hate about the Vegas race is all the stupid gambling cliches that the idiot announcers are going to jam down your throat in about 4 hours.
