Coming up shortly. I'd guess this is another import press conference today? Probably going to announce the new 'stay in the car' rule. Who know's? It could just be about the upcoming testing.....

You hit the nail smack dab on the head.

I just can't believe NASCAR hasn't given much consideration to a dues paying card carrying Owner/Driver of their exclusive association.

They sure didn't mind racking in the dough because of this man during his heydays, which I don't believe are over.

He wasn't the one out of his car..this time anyway.:growl:
 
Again, for those interested.

Getting ready to begin.....

You can bet all of these drivers will be asked over and over about Tony today.

Larson, Johnson, & Kenseth all coming up before practice begins today.

I hope not. Leave the damn story alone until the investigation is completed. Have some decency.

"Michigan is a 4-mile dirt 'bullring' where cars go in excess of 600 mph (INSERT 'CANNONBALL RUN' CLIP HERE)..." - Mainstream media.
 
Won't last long but.....

Danica Patrick turns the first 200 mph lap of the weekend. She's fastest at 200.323 mph.
 
Am I the only one watching qualifying? Hopefully Gordon can keep this track record thru round 3.
 
Yawn. Gordon harvick Logano 123. Rinse recycle repeat. Looking forward to Milwaukee thoughthough
 
Going to be a tough race on Sunday.

Nice on Jeff to win pole again.

I'm watching RFR this weekend and Menard is dangerous on the 1.5 tracks.
 
talk about disappointing, one Toyota in the top 17, I feel terrible about that..nope I really don't. :punkrocke
