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?

Phoenix had a good turn-out as far a I am concered. Not sure what good is but Sun Devil stadium holds about 72,000 and I'd say there were probably 30,000 there. Phoenix is a good venue and they shoud run it twice. Hopefully Sun Devil Stadium, not PIR, not Cardinals Stadium, Not Firebird Int'l Raceway and not Speed World.

SUN DEVIL STADIUM!!!

So NASCRAP has now targeted "the Dinger". Wonder what he did to offend? They screwed Mayfield, Tyler Walker and Shane Heiml (sp) - they did all they could to screw Robby too, with illegal parts, taking wins away, etc. Mike (Hitler) Helton just loves to get in there and ruin the chances of so many good drivers. May he rot in H---.

Enough of the conspiracy theories, OK? Why would NASCAR want to get rid of AJ? He is a young clean cut Man that is popular with the fans. He drove for Penske and Penske is probably the most well liked team owner in the history of motorsports. He drove one of the two Dodges in Cup and NASCAR badly wants Dodge back next year in full force. So please tell me why NASCAR wanted to see this happen?

You folks must just be a bunch of morons. Take the tin foil hats off and quit telling yourself the black helicopters are over your house every night..

Maybe it has more to do with Lynn? Yep,I'm a tin foil hat'd moron.Why do you'all trust Brian France?Jeromy's deal may have started with Shana? Megan France may have had the scoop on that deal,the court records would have been interesting,but it looks like Brian got them sealed.(like Obama's school records,just say'n,if you have nothing to hide?)

'the Captain' It wasn't 6 months later,more like a year and a half later.And as I recall Jeromy just got bust'd for possession not use.
True about Shane,he just couldn't stop smoking dope.Aaron Fike was busted by the Police,not Na$crap,Tyler has'nt try'd to be reinstated.

Lynne? OK. Now I understand what is going on. Brian France wanted to suspend her for using breast implants that were not approved by NASCAR. You know the old, "Section 12-1 of the NASCAR rulebook--actions detrimental to stock car racing. And probably this one, Section 20-2.1E--if in the judgment of NASCAR officials, any part or component not previously approved by NASCAR that has been installed or modified to enhance performance will not be permitted.

But, when Lynne got the notice she called Brian and told him that they must have lost the paper work she submitted. She offered to drop by his house that night and let hm personally inspect the unapproved parts for a few hours. While she was getting "inspected and approved" she whispered in Brian's ear that AJ was being an ass about their divorce and wondered if he could do anything to help her out?

Is that why AJ is in trouble now?

or Lynn didn't swing by the Charlotte apartment.And I'd guess she's stock-legal.

Honestly I had never paid any attention to Lynne before this. I knew she was a model and posed for Playboy so I assumed she probably did what many Women do to get to those places.That she had breast augmentation. Now that I look at her photos I don't think that is the case. She appears to be 100% OEM equipped. Stock legal as Mike said. Kudos to her for doing that too.

How did they screw Mayfield ?? He got busted by the cops 6 months later with meth in his house and Tyler Walker admitted to his own drug use ??? and Shane got busted twice ! and admitted too it !

I still do agree the Robby nose piece should have just been a replace before it hits the track deal since it was caught in post qual inspection..... that whole deal stunk, but then again all of us on this site are biased on that one.
