    Martinsville

     



    Just got in the house to watch the last 40 laps and best of all to see my man Smoke put it to 'em!!!! Points should really be weird after this wreck fest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    PS--Edwards is still in first, Smoke is 8 points behind him---Rest of the season probably gonna be wild!!!!

    I actually got to watch most of the show. Stewart hung it out a couple times to come from the back! He deserved the win! Can't say I'm happy 'bout it tho'...

    Seems like both NASCAR and NHRA are having interesting season ending runs (except Pro Stock auto). Could be even more interesting over the next few weeks for NASCAR......least mistakes and best pit work will probably be the difference. Happy to see the bleachers pretty full here in Vegas for the drag guys............most of the season they've been at least half empty. Pomona should be a dog fight in a couple weeks.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    I watched some of the NHRA show last night on espn and it was quite the drama filled twisting and turning event they hoped it to be! All 3 Force cars out the first round! and the girl racing the motorcycle, taking out Arana Junior - I thought she was gonna crash in the shutdown area from jumping around on that bike!

    I watched the first few laps and tried to tag the rest on the tape of the Syracuse DIRT modified race - another tape in the can. I did turn the TV on in time for Smoke to cross the finish line, but nothing else from lap 249. Oh well, modifieds at Syracuse was probably better, especially with many of the local three tracks drivers in the race.

    Yuppers, the final points race in both NASCAR and NHRA is going to be good this year! Lines locked up Pro Stock, but other then that everything is wide open.... as for NASCAR, I liked Smoke's attitude in the post race interviews, you guy in Vegas might want to go put a 20 on Smoke to win!!!!
