A quick glance at this weekends Watkins Glen weather forecast has me thinking that it's only a matter of a short period of time before we start talking rain tires again. :eek:

Years ago we used to camp just outside the boot for the Cup races there. That was and still is the free camping section that they provide. First come first serve.
 
FB, I really would like to see you save your coins and actually go to a race and then watch the changes in your responses on here. I think that it would be amazing, but of course you already think that you are the cats meow. :D

You've never heard of Louis-Philippe Dumoulin???:D
 
Louis-Philippe Dumoulin is Canadian he finished 2nd last weekend behind Andrew Ranger at the Nascar Canadian tire Grand Prix 3 Rivieres. He's a good road course driver.
 
I see Rusty Wallace has two cars in the race, #4 & #50, with neither being driven by Steven Wallace.

Ryan Ellis is a wheel. I've watched him most of his career. He can get it done on the road courses and on the ovals.
 
Danica Patrick had never driven a stock car around Watkins Glen International before Friday, and she’ll have a total of about 10 laps before she competes Saturday in the Zippo 200.

With Nationwide Series practice run partially in the rain Friday, Patrick made only six laps—one on rain tires and five on slicks once the 2.45-mile road course was dry—and probably will get three or four laps during the qualifying session Saturday morning.

Full story here.
 
Any word on any other drivers trying to qualify who have never driven a stock car around Watkins Glen or is she the only one?
 


Had to wait until she walked off to snap it FB.

This is resized to double the original you posted (2.5 inches to 5 inches), and it gets a little grainy. If you downsize your originals, they will look as good as the original.
