I haven't watched nascar in over a year. I somehow lost interest after Jr. started sucking so bad. I didn't want to jump fence and start liking another driver...I decided to quit watching altogether. I just visited nascars website today and see that he still hasn't won a race in the Sprint cup but I think I'll pick him anyway and I WILL BE WATCHING!

As usual, going for JR. eventually I have to be right if I pick the same person everytime LOL...
But second, Tony Stewart

Mark Martin all the way! :tmb I hope jimmy's motor stalls on the first lap.. haha!
Jr. is in some sort of slum... I did hear that they are going to allow bump drafting amongst other things... so racing should be a little more eventful than it was the second half of the season last year.. thank gawd!
I'm picking Carl Edwards for the Saturday night race

I'm going with Kasey Kahne; the RPM Fords seem like really competative. I can't believe that I am rooting for a Ford.
Tony Stewart in the Nationwide Race.

Well, I was talked into a Daytona 500 pool (for fun...of course!) at work and I ended up with Marcos Ambrose, so I guess I'm pulling for him to end up either 1st, 2nd, or 43rd. :tmb
As a bonus maybe his Toyota's brakes will stop working and/or his accelerator pedal will stick and he'll win. :laugh

1/2 way there; go Kasey.
Tony Chewbaka won the crash fest Busch race, Harvick pulled a nice move there at the end to grab a 3rd place spot. KHI cars take a #1 and #3 this race, and a win 5 times in 6 years. That has to have that shop feeling some pride. :kudo
So tonight they'll run the rained out trucks and the KHI Hornaday truck is still my pick. :tmb
On a side note:
Anyone see the Tony Stewart Q&A with the press where he was asked if he thought the new car was too safe causing ratings to decline? Man, his answer was priceless. He practicaly called the reporter a IDIOT. I love it, press room is to safe lets cut some legs off the chairs what do you think of that?
I think I'm going to e-mail him and tell him the press moron question of the year award needs to be a 1 legged chair.

Actually they've loosened the rules.
Bump drafting is back too.
Penalties removed for a few things so that ''racers can be racers'' and driver personality can show. Can't wait to see Tony Stewart get pissed off a few times this year. I really like how quick witted he can be with the press.

as with anything good (football, nascar, rasslin), when it becomes popular, money comes into play. when money comes along, well, the game (whatever it is) goes from being about doing it for the love of the game to doing it for money.
of course we all like good ol boy stuff like cale yaborough and bobby allison fighting in the infield. problem is, sponsors don't. maybe they need different sponsors.

I don't care who wins just as long as NASCAR becomes interesting again. Make the sport some what real again.

Looks like the hole in the track is winning this race. I might just have to tune into the Olympics if that track fixing last much longer.
