Okay, do you have any pre-race rituals to bring your driver(s) good luck? Go.....
 
My pre-race ritual has nothing to do with bringing good luck to my driver. He's probably got some of his own to do that.

Mine are simply to make sure that the fridge and/or cooler are well supplied. The DVR is set to record. My RaceView scanner package is fired up and ready to go. Unlike @ted@economy I make sure that I am dressed unless we watch from the hot tub. That's clothing optional. :D
 
Nope none noda. No rituals at all.

I watch 99.5% of the races from the DVR and use the skip and fast forward a bunch. Only time I sit through a complete race live is when I am at the track.

Considering I work midnights and don't wake up until noon, I'd say that's OK. Lol

I pointed out that was the case for 1:00 races. Night races are exempt from that ritual.

No fun in that. You miss all the good commercials. :rolleyes:
 
When I'm wrenching my ritual is to check the tightness of every bolt I can fit a wrench onto, before the car goes out. It may not bring my driver good luck, but it minimizes the bad luck caused by parts falling off...
 
I always pray that the JGR drivers have a real crappy day ..................except for Kyle of course :)

Am I ever with you on that one and even more so in 2015.
On the other hand I do like to see Matt always in the top 15 cause I am looking for someone who can win the championship without winning a race.:)

2014 was really lame , I was rooting for Newman after cowhat ran over Kyle and knocked him out of the chase
 
I pick my Toyota/TRD gear to wear, fire up the RaceView on my phone and laptop, and make sure I am in place for the command. If we lose, different gear to wear. If we win, gear gets worn the following week. Gear has a maximum of 3 wins before retirement. Went through lots of gear last year. No ****. This is how I roll.

In the event this becomes a reality, I cannot be held accountable for my actions. I give to you, my friend, my Fontana tickets after they put me in jail. :mad:

I will pm you my address so you can send them ................. be sure you use enough stamps ;)
 
I make sure my DirecTV is functioning along with Raceview Scanner and Race view Mobile. Fast Forward through my recordings of the pre-race shows, check Twitter, see what's going on with you guys then watch the race. I'm not sure if that qualifies as a ritual but it's definitely a routine.
