Wow. Way to instill confidence in your team. With that attitude, it's no wonder he hasn't won for awhile. I bet daddy never thought like that. He thought he could win every race even if he had the worst car.

The Monster Mile just destroyed the Monster Energy truck. Ricky Carmichael head on in the wall, nasty NASTY hit. He climbed out & walked away, hard to believe.

Nah, the retards on this site like coming to this thread and being unoriginal with "redneck" comments. That's good for a couple pages itself.

I watched Trackside last night, and Harvick had me rolling. He had DW so speechless, with his outspoken ways. He most definitely tells it how it is.

DW isnt speechless much.
I'm loving it this is what Nascar was lacking.

Crazy finish to the N'wide race today. Logano gets loose, goes into the wall, bounces back down and nails Bowyer. Bowyer bounces off the side of his car and then slams hard into the wall. Pretty sweet view from Bowyer's car cam though.

dayum, I went to Travel Country & Bass Pro Shop and missed that. The Rolex and GrandAm races at V.I.R. were wild, a Porsche rolled 3 times in that one.

LOL, good one. Nascar owns it. JC France's car won the $25k bounty on Ganassi. I just caught the end of the Rolex race, the boxster roll will be on tv next Sunday. My friend and her co-driver started 30th, finished 13th. Lots of wreckage and killed cars she said.

We should be just fine.



Qualifying was rained out yesterday though. Per the new rules, starting positions were set by practice speeds.
