Congrats ToyYoda, your guys are really strong right now and the Toyota engines are fast. They are making the Chevys and Fords look bad right now.

I think his question was , Will Yahoo substitute the driver or leave you with a 'did not enter' for Smith?

No, it was a warning to those who were planning to go with Smith, as well as a complaint since I couldn't pick Dillon. I already know Yahoo won't give people points if they pick a driver that's not in the race even if it's Yahoo's fault, so I went with Mears instead.

I think you had better go back and read some of my earlier posts in the past, and you will see that I have said that I will only work on Chevy and Hemi engines and that I won't touch a Toyota engine, and the engine make is not going to determine which teams or drivers that I root for. Right now I root for a few Toyota teams and a few Chevy teams. The owner, crew chief, and driver is what determines who I root for.:cool::)

It's ok, we'll take it ;) Would love to see the 11 finish where he starts, he needs to get on the ball as far as getting wins if he still wants to have a shot at the Chase.
 
He has plenty of time, he will probably make it, but I will be sticking pins in my ju ju doll, and frying up grannies potions anyway.

Good call.
 
I was pretty impressed with the way rookie driver Alex Bowmans team worked on the setup on their nationwide car all day. You could see their improvment each time they went out on the track. I think they started out running around 20th, and then 16th, 15th, 14th, and then when the day was done they were the 2nd fast time. It just shows that hard work and dedication can payoff.
 
Good luck for the rookie Bowman. Gibbs is running four cars with two current cup drivers and two recent full time cup drivers. Not counting Kyles car that Klingerman is driving. The deck is pretty stacked, but I am hoping Larson will jump up there, along with Regan Smith keeping his lead, and if a ringer is going to win, Kahne or Logano.

I seen an interview a few weeks ago and Alex was talking about how much he had learned from KB and a couple of the other cup drivers that had explained to him how to give feed back to his crew on what the car was doing. It looks like it has been helping because he had a pole a few weeks ago and he was second fast in practice yesterday. He is still young and the wins will come in time.
 
I just bought tickets for tomorrows race. I'm excited, I didn't go to Dover last year for the first time in many many years and this is the only time I get to go to a live race since Pocano isn't worth going to.
 
I'm a fan of Busch in cup, but in NW, I'm for any driver that's NOT Busch (or Wrecking Noob or Crotch Shot).

Have a great time and text me pictures of Danica in winners circle. ;)
 
It looks like Kurt finished as top dog in final practice.

Why are you of the opinion that Pocono isn't worth going to? I've been to a few tracks here in the east and I think Pocono is a fantastic venue! I'm very curious why I hear so much negativity about Pocono.?!

I'm curious as to why you seem to hate Kenseth so much - has he done something to you or wronged you in some way?

As with people disliking Pocono, I guess it's just one of those things :confused:

It has nothing to do with the racing. The view offered from the grandstands isn't very good and combine that with the fact that the traffic getting out of there is miserable. Id much rather watch the race on tv.

I can understand completely about the traffic getting out, it's a nightmare for sure! The view doesn't bother me from row 47 though.

Pocono is not an exciting race on TV. It may be better in person (as are all races) but it's a long-green-flag, fuel-mileage snoozer on TV.
