 I taped the race and when it got rain delayed, I got busy out side. later when watching, Danica Patric was running with the leaders with 22 laps to go when time ran out on tape..sh..t
 Found out later she was knocked out many laps earlier? Must have been watching last years race, but when I tuned in there was no mention of last year.

  Anyhow glad Junior won :cheers:

Next time take a look at the bottom of the screen John.

I did better, set up the DVR. While in Portland we watched until the rain came then went downtown. I knew I would have nothing when I got home. The good news is that when I checked the DVR I had over 5 hours of the race. Bad news, in my haste I chose the wrong channel to set up, any one speak Spanish? Anyhow, turns out 5 hours was still not enough time, replay is on Friday.

 Back from the race, had a GREAT time it was far from boring for me. I had access to pit road and watched the race from there. to see  40 cars come by at 195mph+ within inches of each other impressed me. Im not going NASCAR racing but I did enjoy it. :? :?

Appears to me Austin Dillon really thinks he IS Dale Earnhardt. In Dales youth he took out who ever he choose and made a ton of enemies. Wised up much later. Looks like Dillon is starting that way too by first taking out his chief rivel for rookie of the year Kyle Larson and many others..Not much said on TV........JD

  They don't dare say anything bad about whomever drives the #3 car or the brain (less?) legions of Dale Sr. fans would bring wrath and doom upon the offending Network, announcers, and sponsors.
 Sterling Marlin, the poor bastard who "may" have sent Dale Sr. into the wall, was essentialy driven out of Nascar by death threats and pressure put on sponsors by the fine fans of Nascar.
  Besides, Grandpa won't let anybody rough him up and he has GM Racing behind him.

Could have been written tongue-in-cheek. Trent is too smart to fall for the Fox Sports scam.

Apparently smarter than a large portion of the folks that Tweet and post on facebook! :cheers: :-D :wink: :roll:

Jimmy....Tony drove in a late model race at our local short track a few years ago...Got himself turned around by a faster car and made the track owner red flag the race so he could leave in his motorhome. Real class act.
