At the Rolex 24

http://www.racintoday.com/archives/1876 "Earnhardt Sr. got an OK from Doug Fehan, program manager for Corvette Racing, to acquire the purpose-built C5-R’s from GM. “One day soon, we’re going to find a way in our schedule to get over to Le Mans and see what it’s like,” Earnhardt Sr. told Fehan...

Doug Fehan who ran the corvette program was going to sell Dale a few corvettes for him to run for DEI.

Yup. He was impressed by Ron Fellows that he offered him a ride in the 1 cup car full-time in 2002. Contract was printed and was sitting on his desk for him and Ron to sign it. Dale was planning to do the watkins glen grand-am race in August and the rolex 24 again in 2002.

Yup 03 would have been his last season and in 04 would have gone sports car racing with a DEI corvette.

Wish the 500 started at 3:30.

Aj will be back with MSR and Austin Dillon is trying to find a ride.

Skip to the 3 minute mark. Once he told not to pass him look how his driving changes.

The 20 laps times slowed down when he caught the 11. The 19 was the fastest car on the track when he had to come in for a loose wheel. Once he the 20 his lap times also slowed down and made no attempt to pass. Add in what the team told Erik it’s obvious that he wasn’t going to pass Denny. Fine...

According to Adam stern the 500 may be limited to 20% capacity.

More being released in Jan including Dale in a 3 car. DEI and RCR haven’t worked together since 2012 or 2013.

Bristol removed more seats on the backstretch as they removed every other row.

Charlotte had removed more seats. The center frontstretch they removed every other row. They went from 160k to less than 85k.

I wonder if the coke 400 will be in the evening because it’s hot during the day.

Bristol removed every other row in turns 3 and 4. I believe with the other seats they removed attendance will be under 100k.

RC owns the trademarks to the 3 and the paint scheme in cup. Teresa owns the rights to the paint scheme that he ran in Busch.

About 10k attended. The mask policy was sadly mostly ignored. Entering people has their masks one but by the time the cup race started it was hot and people took them off. A lot of people weren't wearing them in the concourse and when they red flagged the race about 90% of the people didn't have...

With the race being in the day with temps over 90 and a chance of rain the speedway has sold about 13,000 tickets.

New Hampshire has completely removed turn 3 and 4 grandstand.
