Texas - AAA Texas 500 - Pre Race Thread

Don't we have this Dallas/Fort Worth/where is the race actual held debate before every Texas race?
I believe that last time someone showed a map with the race track, proving where it actual is held.

One must be careful with those "offical" maps. A pro Fort Worth or Dallas map artist often will use poetic liesence to draw maps to suit their own agenda, and even get them notarized by "intellects" with the same bias.

Here is a Google Map screenshot of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex with a TMS marker:

Jr using the chassis he won the Pocono races with
Harvick using the chassis from Charlotte # 2
Logano using chassis from Bristol win
 
#24-Jeff Gordon: crew chief Alan Gustafson has selected Hendrick Motorsports Chassis No. 24-907 for this Sunday's race. This chassis has been raced twice previously with Gordon posting runner-up finishes at Chicago in September and Charlotte in October. Gordon has one win, two pole positions, nine top-five finishes and 12 top-10s in 27 Sprint Cup starts at Texas. The 43-year-old driver is the only individual to compete in every Sprint Cup event at Texas. On April 5, 2009, Gordon led 105 laps en route to his lone victory in The Lone-Star State. That win was his 82nd career victory in NASCAR's premier division.

Umm, that's quite alot of mileage on that car. Hope it lasts another 500 for his sake.

I was going to go bow hunting tomorrow but the weather is supposed to be awful. I can take the inches of snow but I don't know about 50 mph winds and my arrows!

I'm old, I use a crossbow. :D
 
I see Timmy Hill is setting it on fire in the 1st practice session - as usual.

Actually, I'm taking one of those too. I may just be less willing to sit out in harsh conditions. Although, I can sit in the deer house....
Ok, you've convinced me, I'll go!
 
wonder if HMS get their 200 pole today....i'm thinking yes
 
I saw that they already gave Kyle Busch the trophy for the truck race tomorrow. Just went ahead and got it over with. Smart thinking......
