Payback..................................

Several members, TOG included, are predicting retribution from Jamie.

I don't see it, for several reasons.

#1 The allegation was from a 26 crew member, not Jamie.

#2 Jamie being a "home boy" I have watched him pretty carefully, from his Busch days, & I just don't see him racing that way.

#3 Al tho this happened when Jamie was leading, & Robby was laps down. Thus adding to the frustration level. It's plain that this wasn't anything intentional.… Read More

The Job Fair

First off, I just want to thank everyone out there who has supported "The Hot Pass" store. It has been fun to find and offer the official gear, and I hope you have had fun recieving the items. They are unique pieces, and I hope everyone that wears the stuff to the track feels like a little more of a badass that they circumvented the merchandise trailers and gotten the good shit. I have some great items on deck, so keep your eyes peeled. If anyone has requests for specific teams or sizes, send… Read More

Pre Halloween Monster

Dover...One of the coolest tracks on the circuit in my mind. I was not very lucky at the nickel slots in June, but I still like Dover. You will notice on TV this weekend that there are bridges that cross over the track. One of the neatest experiences is walking out of the track on Saturday and watching the Nationwide cars zing off of turn two all pitched sideways as they dissappear under your feet.

The first Dover is always interesting for RGM as the Baja 500 is usually the same… Read More

7 Is Lucky

In the same way that anyone has watched the slow decline of an addict, everyone on the planet has been waiting for rock bottom to hit and to start seeing some upward momentum. So, perhaps, the rainout on Friday was the breath of sunshine in the dark forest for the Robby faithful. We only had to qualify on time for the first 3 races that I was an employee in 2006 and we made all them. Each one was nervy and anytime you have to cut a lap, you have the chance to "trip on your dick" as they say in… Read More

Dear Robbys current PR person

I recognize this has probably been one heck of a year for you. I'm glad I don't have your job..you couldn't pay me enough. There has not been much good to talk about this year, and plenty of stuff that needs "spun" or shushed up. I feel your pain. How many different ways can you say..we screwed up on the set up, something totally f-ing off the wall happened, or our luck sucks ass. However, I do have one small piece of advice for you. Robby still has some (I debated on putting the some in caps… Read More

Give Patrick a Ride

Patrick deserves a ride, plain and simple. It really bothers me that Elliott Sadler, Reed Sorenson, & Casey Mears get multiple chances but Patrick only gets one it seems. Those that I named are "vets" and Patrick is a Rookie in Nascar who has shown a ton of potential.

I am amazed at all the people who seem to love/like the guy, hehe He does have a fanbase, so I hope someone besides GanASSi stepsup and gives this fan friendly driver a ride.

BTW, Signup at the PC Fan… Read More

Hurricane within a Hurricane

So it looks like weather will be a factor for the race this weekend, but there are enough challenges at Richmond sans hurricane, that it will be an interesting weekend. First of all the race is an impound, so there is only on practice, then qualifying and the race. You can change a few things like grille tape, trackbar, jackscrews, and other normal pitstopish adjustments between qualifying and the race, but that's it. So, it can be a miserable weekend if the car is not 90% of the way there off… Read More
