It's just sarcasm not transferring over to text my man, I wouldn't worry about it. Sounds like y'all just got some wires crossed.

The internet is serious business. :)

I don't want to give it a rating, it was the best race I've seen there in awhile though. I felt like I would have enjoyed it a lot more if I would have been in the stands.

Haha I thought the same thing but you gotta admit Richard found some good talent. Still...something never sits right with me when I see a non-NC native behind the wheel of the 43 car. :)

It was just good racing... Both interviews should have been this: "<swig of Coke with label pointing at camera> That's racing. The <insert sponsors> <insert make of car> really was a hot-rod today, thanks to the <boys in the shop/car owner/more sponsors> we'll get 'em next week". That would...

You and I are close in age, I was born in 1986 and also spent most of my youth watching races with my Dad. I was also a huge Rusty fan, I still think he knows his way around Martinsville better than anyone else. He knows how to save them brakes :D. I wanted to post this video, sorry about...

I'm torn between posting this video and another one, but instead of a pass in the grass I think I'm going to have to go with this: I always liked Dale because he spoke up when he felt something wasn't in the interest of the sport. Not saying he was always right mind you....:) BTW when he...

It is actually a combination of everything. :) The clouds, water, trees, and wind all work against you when you have a dish. What y'all are talking about is called "rain fade" and the reason it is so common is the dishes are small so weather really messes with them. The trick, if you can...

I understand the numbers were down but they did kind of screw us on the dates. Used to be the race right after Daytona which I'm not surprised when it drew bad attendance. It's still pretty cold in NC and it rains a lot during that time of year here too. I know it drew more fans in the past on...

First off, sorry for the guy and his family. Second: I am kinda shocked that this guy could sneak in a firearm but I can't even enter a track these days without begin searched for pot at every gate. I just look like a stoner (and I am) but I don't toke up on race day inside of the track. I've...

I really hope it this doesn't happen. I have no options other then DirecTV and Dish where I live if I want to watch anything that isn't on OTA (and I can't get Fox that way because it's the one channel no one can pick up since the switch to digital OTA). Basically I refuse to get service from...

Martinsville, Bristol, Watkins Glenn, Dover, Atlanta/Texas, and Rockingham Speedway (why is there no cup race there anymore? Never got to see one in person :().

Sometimes things get lost in the wash. I missed the race today because of the basketball tournament and would have had to troll through pages of the race thread to find out what happened so I appreciate the thread and links to the videos. I'm lazy :p

Of course not, everyone knows those mammaroids just get in the way:

I can really only give advice for Martinsville, been to other tracks but not often enough to know them well. For Martinsville: - Pack a big cooler, and buy an extra seat to have a place for it. Pack the following: Any drinks (soda/beer), bottled water, snacks/lunch. Always pack a little more...

Ah good old Martinsville! You forgot to mention the hot dogs....:) I got covered in beer when I was a kid at that track. We were sitting on the front stretch and about halfway into the race someone sitting behind us decided to throw a bottle of beer at Dale Earnhardt's car. Guy had great aim...

I didn't mean to imply you were a newbie, but nor am I, been following this sport for over 20 years. :) "Slam on the brakes" was a bad way to put it...I meant that if he let up the guy behind him might not have and would have smashed into him anyway. Also, I was saying that he had a split...

If you get your back pay save all you can, because I've seen them cut people off without notice too. It's a really tricky system, but I'm sure you're learning that. :) Best of luck to you, I really hate to hear about anyone dealing with this. I know how it is...not begin able to work and...

It's going to be on FOX so I hope you own a DVR. :( ESPN's coverage yesterday was awful imho, wayyyyy too many commercials.

They are unavoidable at some tracks but Daytona could probably build another tunnel I'm sure. I think the main problem is the placement. If you're going to have them put them somewhere safe; - Where there aren't any fan sitting on the other side - Not at the exit/entrance to turns. Even on a...
