    As much as we appreciate all you haters opinions! Some of us enjoy the mery-go-round and enjoy getting each others opinions about the things to come!

    I bet I brought any one of you to a race and you would have a BLAST! As I have said before...nobody has EVER regretted going to a race with me and most of them would go again in a heart beat!

    While mine came off as "not to nice," I like going to the races. As a matter of fact I think I spooned with Matt Stafford at the 'Dega last year. :wave:

    I like going to races. I like going to hockey games. I like going to family reunions. I like going to weddings.

    That doesn't mean I have to like watching all of the above on tv.

    True. T.V. is a total differant spectrum then live. A Saturday night in Bristol will change your life forever.

    With all of those left turns, I guess they need a cot to catch some z's.

    Very true, October's Dega race really was horrible. I think the actual race will be a little more exciting than you are leading on. Remember, they will have run the Shootout the weekend before, plus they all will have ran their Gatorade Duel race. That should give them alittle idea of how things will handle.

    friend of mine got some management position at the new bass pro shop in denham. he claims tony stewart is going to be there for the grand opening.

    no im not interested but figured some of you nex may be. who knows maybe a good fight will break out.

    maybe this was widely known, I dunno just passing along the wonderful news.

    They will run the Shootout in back up cars. The duals aren’t really racy cept for those needing in the top 35 and the others who are attempting this only race for the year. Starting position in Daytona is moot because the draft.

    The top seeders are really just getting draft practice while working kinks out with their crews.

    Dega is much wider then Daytona and last year they ran in single file, 20 deep till 60 laps to go. It can only get better in the next few weeks.

    For those just a tiny bit interested, here is the last two laps from last years race. Enjoy!
