Random NASCAR Stuff to talk about.....

Dover just announced that they have two race dates for next year.

Both weekends tripleheaders.

2013 races: June 2 and Sept. 29.

Is this some sort of preemptive announcement or wishful thinking? The schedule hasn't even come out yet. If there were any track out there that I thought would be in danger of losing a date, I'd guess Dover. I like the track. Went there for years. It's just that the crowds have dwindled there like they have @ Indy.

Speaking of Kyle . It is truly amazing how far we have come since he was on that winning streak and we were discussing his Hall of Fame credentials . Now 15th in points with a slim chance of making the chase . I'm still not clear on who this guy is .

Well, some people were. He's still driving hard, which seems to take it's toll on those JGR cars. I don't know how else to explain the failure rate for the #18.
 
Keselowski is now just 4 points out of 5th place in the standings, and he's the only fulltime Dodge driver in the field. Amazing.
 
Carl Edwards testing @ Martinsville.

Nate Ryan.....

Martin Truex Jr. close to an extension with Michael Waltrip Racing; hasn't talked to other teams. "No secrets to hide," he smiles.

He just doesn't seem to be driving as hard anymore. Either that or they just don't have the power they did in years past.

So..... It looks like this is going to be the norm for the Chevy until next year unveiling? Wouldn't it mean more to get your product out there for everyone to see?

Maybe they are waiting until the fall Charlotte race to do the big unveils. Hard to say. Chevy is so good at keeping things under wraps. No one saw the NNS Camaro announcement coming.

I read somewhere that it wasn't happening until February. I don't know how they can wait.
 
We seem to be getting a lot of young ladies as new members to the forum. Lisa-c , Ditzmeister, and Lovemonkey to name just three. I think that now is a good time to try to cut down on the off color remarks and locker room humor that abounds at times ,out of respect to them . Fair warning , I for one am going to be using the 'report ' button as often as I can to try and prompt the mods .I respect these ladies opinions and I want them to keep posting . If some guys get pissed at me , that's fine .;)

I respect women too and Lovemonkey too, check post #269 on the Allmindinger thread were she spoke of smiling over Lynn Allmindinger's breast.
I hope you don't report her. I despise using derogatory terms to degrade women. But I do without apologies admire beautiful ones like Samantha Busch. I hope that's not offensive, but I didn't sign up for the priesthood

Ahmen. Someone seems to think they are the better judge of what should offend a woman than that woman herself.
 
I'm waiting for news that Joey Logano has been tossed into county jail.

DNewtonespn tweeted: #NASCAR @joeylogano signed waiver not do burnout, then he almost took out police car doing one.

I respect our moderators enough to let them decide what is appropriate and what is not. Without anyone bugging the hell out of them, by way of trying to rule the forum and pushing the dreaded REPORT button, they see a problem on their own and fix it. In my opinion they dont need the help. We all see what happened the last couple of times someone abused the report button. Live and let live.
