Let the games begin!

All I have to say is NASCAR is about passion and that is what these two drivers have–Passion. This will probably be another “much ado about nothing” after this weekend. If you are a reader of The Park you know who I would root for in this tete-a-tete.  It’s weird how most of the season the talk has been about Kyle Busch and his attitude/antics and now…well, let’s just say there hasn’t been much discussion about Rowdy.  But like with anything, the more things change the more the stay the same

Looks like qualifying has been rained out and thus the points were set by the standings. That means Jimmie is on the pole once again. Lowe’s is Jimmie’s track. He has 5 wins at the track and even if he doesn’t win, he is always a threat at Lowe’s.

Stewart Haas Racing has announced that Army will be the sponsor of Ryan Newman and the #39 car in 2009.

I heard my phone ring around 6 pm tonight.  I saw the call ID…TMS (Texas Motor Speedway) was calling.  Now what could they be calling about at that hour?  Perhaps I had won the contest they had been running on their website.  I didn’t get to my phone in time, but I was left a message.  Nope…all hopes dashed…it was just a recording reminding me I hadn’t purchased by tickets for the April race weekend.  I have to give TMS some props, it wasn’t just your usual computer voice recording.  Nope…it was a recording of Kevin and Delana Harvick.  As much as I would love to head to TMS in April, there isn’t much in the old race budget this soon.  But hey, if they really want me to be there, why not have the Harvicks purchase tickets for me.  Oh well…perhaps I could purchase tickets for the race weekend in November.  I mean after all…the government is sending out refund checks.
