    Which race were you watching? The Nationwide from Saturday? Carl Edwards won that one.

    I didn't watch todays (sprint cup) race.

    Saturday was an exciting finish for sure. Carl passing keselowski on the OUTSIDE was way cool!

    Today's race..Was broadcast live...Started at 4AM NZ time,but I think that was the usual hour of buildup. I started watching at breakfast time,(,6.30) and opened the shop a little late..Yeah,Dave,,awesome finish..

    Danica was taken out by a car that had gone off track, lost it, came back on track right in front of here....again, no fault of her own a simple matter of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. The driver who hit her apologized for taking her out of the race. By the way, that is not a DQ (disqualification), that's a DNF (did not finish). Also that was in the Nationwide race on Saturday, not the Cup race on Sunday.

    Your right Dave,I did use the wrong term.Her DNF's percentages do seem to be unusable high.

    Did you guys see NHRA last week? Both Erika Enders and Courtney Force scored wins! I believe it was the first for both!

    Sorry for the hijack Lammy..

    I figured you did! 8-)
    I'll admit that I was hootin' & hollerin' when they each won! Just love to see the underdog (as if anyone with the last name of Force could be considered an underdog..) take a win.. Especially when they take out one of the Big Guns! LOL..

    Erika has come close before but Courtney has only made 1 or maybe 2 final rounds so it felt good to see'em win!
