    NASCAR in Texas, and goin' fast!!!!!!

     



    Fellow geezers, be proud!!!! Mark Martin set fast time in practice today, averaged a bit over 189 mph, or over 200 on the straights!!!! Gives him a late spot for qualifying tomorrow which is usually better... Gooooooooooooooo Mark!!!!!

    Mark Martin has been my main man ever since Dale Jarrett retired.

    His efforts of yesterday really set me grinning.

    I don't know how many pole setters have won the race.I was just making the point that even if Mark didn't get the pole,he could still win the race.Kind of the credo of any racer-"It is sure better to be lucky than good".

    Well, Biffle got it in a Ford, Mark came in 3rd, heck of a good run! Must be Cousin Carl's turn to win in Kansas now, the other two Roush cars already have a win!

    Ol' Biff had a really good handle on that thing based on his driving posture from the in car shots. Wind? What wind?

    70% percent of the top 10 were all the cars from two teams, Fords and Chevies. If you stretch to the top twelve you get 4 toyotas in the mix. I guess NASCAR would be happy with that kind of parity. Better parity than parody I suppose..........

    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.
